Okay, I will. What's the point? How can you do better than zero wear? If I do a UOA and the wear levels come below the noise threshold on dino SM then how is spending the extra for syn going to improve on that? If you don't call on the syn to do the extra things is capable of - turbo cooling, long intervals, extreme cold - then you aren't asking it to do anything dino couldn't do.
