I would've expected a mechanical thermostat to not be binary, because it's simpler to build them that way (basically a spring that slowly changes shape with temperature), but I guess they could also use some kind of bent bi-metal strip that would snap one way or the other at a given temp. Oh and I'm running 5W-30 Motul 300V too, so mine isn't quite as thick as yours to begin with.
