2023 High Mileage Oil comparison

Moly = deposits. HPL has large amounts of Moly. Hmmmm??? Thoughts?
I'm curious about this too. In watching Lake Speed Jr's YouTube content, he talks about how more additive = more deposits. I get that it's a balance of anti-wear additives and dispersants, but there's the current Pennzoil philosophy which seems to be to rely heavier on higher quality base oils to be able to pull back on the additives to reduce deposit formation. Then there are other oils that go heavy on the add pack while also having stellar base oils at the same time.

Is the light add pack philosophy to reduce deposits a legitimate strategy, or is that the marketing department's way to spin their cost-cutting to the public? I feel like right now Pennzoil Platinum is either the most innovative of the consumer grade syns, or it's the very worst one...
