Blackstone comments:
This oil was in use just shy of the two year mark and this sample shows your engine handled the run pretty well. Aluminum was the only element that read a little high, but it's right in line with what we've been seeing from your Honda's engine, so it's probably not a major concern. It typically comes from pistons, but it could be from other aluminum parts as well. The oil itself held up well and wasn't contaminated.Insolubles were low at 0.2%, showing good oil filtration and the TBN was strong at 3.4. You could shoot for 12,000 miles next. We'll watch aluminum.

Not sure about the comments about the Aluminum, they're in line with the last 3 Analyses....
