Just throwing it into this discussion.
It can't hurt. I installed one over 20 years ago along with an Inverse Oiler on an 88 E-150.
I flip a switch and watch the oil pressure gauge move into the Normal range then start the engine. I can't say how well it works or doesn't work, but I am willing to bet its a big help. How much a help is anyone's guess.
