Thank you all very, very much. This has been a real education for a newbie like me. A lot to digest!
R&Os / Turbine oils are often used in lightly loaded gear box applications. Which is probably where the recommendation came from.
a non-detergent 30w and an R&O 100 are the same. So for example, the Citgo / Mystik ND 30w and the Citgo Pacemaker 100 are extremely similar products.

Good point! Mobil DTE Heavy is ISO 100. There are lots of options in R&O/Turbine oils in that weight. Most sold in 5-gallon pails. I use DTE Light in my lathe. Some people confuse this type of oil with hydraulic oil, which is different, but typically works okay interchangeably. It's not cheap, commonly $200/5-gallons.
