Next time send it to a different lab. Or better yet, send it to blackstone + another lab that shows actual fuel % instead of a bogus guess like blackstone seems to be doing and compare the data.
There's clear and obvious fuel in the oil (maybe not as bad in your case but others aren't so lucky) yet no significant rise in oil level is shown... so where's the fuel coming from then and a better question is... where's it hiding, since oil level didn't increase.
Ah yes, the great unsolved mystery of Di fuel dilution.

I checked the oil levels frequently (due to the furor) and would guess that I checked them on average every 4 days (ridiculous but eh). So no I don't think this new engine is burning off exactly the same amount of oil as is being added by any dilution over the course of this interval. I do think fuel is being handled in the crankcase, as designed, and recycling as designed. That is the way these things are supposed to work, and I think the data here suggests that is exactly what is happening. This dump sample was done hot and I don't think there is some accumulation of fuel staying in the crankcase abnormally.
