It's unlikely that their esters are super special anyways, most likely the esters found in many high-end synthetics these days are compatible and accomplish the same goal intended for the DLC while being better all-around oils. I think the point with the ester oil was not to run a crappy regular dino oil that was not only a poor oil to begin with, but also lacked the esters (i.e. if they didn't put out this oil and this recommendation, people might be taking the car to jiffy lube and getting random generic dino oil).
