Sure, and coupled with different actual viscosities, HTHS, and formulations (base stocks, VIs, additive packages), it makes sense that one oil may behave differently than another.
Then there are folks who change brands of oil when they do changes ... One brand this OCI, a different brand for previous and subsequent changes. Might the interaction between different brands and formulations contribute to the amount of oil used during an OCI?
Remember, in many engines, there's a substantial amount of oil that remains in the block when doing a change. In my car, about 1.5 quarts remain in the engine. That's a big % with a 4.5-quart change. So what you're experiencing may not be the results of what you put into the engine, but rather, the results of that mixed with whatever was in the engine previously.
