Top it off. I can hear my engine complain when it's a third down from full. Yes, anywhere between the dots is considered acceptable. YMMV.
If you don't drain the old shit, the anti-corrosive properties are diluted. Also you are forever mixing new with the contaminated, compromised (sheared) old. But hey, it's your engine.
Mine burns about 1qt/4Kmi so, again, YMMV. Just keep checking that dipstick.

You are correct, there was some sarcasm.
Regardless, 1qt/600mi would piss me off royally in a brand new car. What did they gap the rings with, a quarter? That's rotary levels of oil burn.
