I don't think shorter conventional dino OCI's will do much. I posted pictures of 3.1L Buick engine that was very well maintained with 3K dino OCI's and was loaded up with varnish, and had less than 100K miles on it. It saw PYB, Mobil, and other top brand dino oil. I agree that a flush is not a good idea, but to properly clean an engine with unknown history more than dino oil is needed. JMO
