There are quite a number of fluids that meet the TES-295 specification and all that you have to do is to visit the Allison web page to find a list of those that are approved. There is no need to speculate about the validity of the claims made for fluids that have not achieved proper approval and listing.

Well Royal Purple Max ATF meet the TES-295, but is not on the Allison listing.......hence UOA.

What you're showing Marisa is simply a Product Data Sheet (PDS) listing.
That is not a UOA, nor does it prove one fluid is better than the other.
Testing, according to the OEM's suite of tests, is what constitutes a lubricant getting added to the list of approved lubricants.
Again, language means something. "Recommended For" but does not mean the same thing as "Approval." There is a difference!
