It's more or less peace of mind. Once I kept adding 91 to my tank my fuel trims slowly crept down.
What we're saying is it's impossible for the ECU and OFT at current to be that dynamic.. Everyone's tank composition is different so the only way you'd really obtain a true "transition tune" scenario would be akin to a limp mode map that retards timing and severely limits load/engine speed..

True peace of mind is running a flex fuel setup just no way around it
