+1. Comparing current lubricants to those of just 20 years ago is like comparing our VQ37VHRs to a late-'60s Ford 289 V8. They do the same thing - gas in, HP out - but the VQ is soooooo much different (HP/displacement, reliability/longevity, octane requirements, &c). Same with modern lubes - they are just a LOT better than they used to be (but then, much more is demanded of them).
