Why is it that this anti wear additive is the one that many people focus on?

Because marketing...addy mfgs have done a good job of convincing people that they need "this", so they look for "that" in their finished lube. The lack of a particular additive in a finished lube should not, in and of itself, confer inferiority. You really should be able to lean on the certs and approvals the lube carries, since you're paying for it. ...
