No its not. I understand that if it was not for the consumption issue your engine would not use the excessive amount of oil, but if you check your oil on a normal basis you will (A) Catch the problem early and (B) avoided complete engine failure. Mazda RX8's are known to use oil and its considered normal. So if you do not check your oil often and your motor fails its your own fault.
