Listen to it again. The words are "...with improved viscosity at most engine temperatures and conventional viscosity at high temperatures."

He's not saying it "acts conventional." He's saying it has the same viscosity as you'd expect from any other xw-20 at high temps, but better viscosity at other temps.
