I'm not sure I follow your train of thought here ...
Admittedly I did an O/FCI very early. The break-in debris (as seen in the filter) is accompanied by smaller metal particles that do pass through the filter; this is proven by thousands of UOAs which have high Fe, Al, Cu counts in the initial break-in miles of engines. I like to both flush and filter that stuff out early; I do an O/FCI at 1k miles, 5k miles and 10k miles. After that, it's 10k miles (which is the OEM prescribed maintenance cycle) for this vehicle.
I'm not doing this "out of desperation". It's a good idea to get the machining remnants out as soon as practical. Especially given that Toyota filters aren't known for high efficiency, though they are fairly well constructed.
Everyone is able to do as they see fit; this is what I choose to do. I believe data (UOAs and filter inspections) supports this to be a reasonable and pragmatic approach.
