I live in a black and white Aircraft World where there are no grey areas except in battle conditions.
It seems to me when it comes to Chemistry that area is much the same.It either is or is not.
Now I do not want to type myself into a corner here but it is agreed not on this board but by the oil makers a PAO fluid is not only manufactured differently it acts different when put to use as a lubricant in any application it is needed. As good as a Group III might be it is not a true synlube base oil period. Just because it was ruled by some Marketers to be a synthetic the guys who know there stuff believe and know different,,Molakule is one of those guys in being a Physicist and a Tribologist these oil issues/additives seem to come easy for him.
Simply put,a Pao fluid and a Group III base oil are two entirely different animals.This topic can be talked about till the cows come home but thats the bottom line.
Hope this helps
