The Iron in your engine is probably rejoicing.
Yeah, I have noticed that Wally World where I am is low on EP also. They have plenty of AFE, and T&SUV, some Truck and Diesil, but very little if any EP.
I bought 3 jugs of 5w-30 EP last week at Wally World. They had plenty of them but were out of the regular 5-30. I had though about trying some of the PP 5-30 but they were out of that also.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the "elevated iron" that has been observed is limited to the M1 regular line, and 5w30 in particular.
Anecdotally, my mothers' Taurus did a full 1yr close to 10k mile on M1 EP 10w30 - iron was 9ppm. To quote M.C. Hammer - "you can't touch this". Or in legally correct oil company marketing - "you can't surpass this".
