I have a 1992 Ford Explorer that has a check oil light that comes on when the car is a quart low. I don't understand why more car makers don't do this? I believe it checks the oil level at start up and if it's low it comes on. Obviously checking the level while the engine is running is a little more complicated, but even that's probably doable nowadays.
Oil pressure is nice but doesn't tell you that you are losing oil until the engine is blown, lol. Seems like this would be a nice feature to have in the 21st century!!
