1) It would collect on the magnet instead of the filter, big deal. All the oil is going to the pan first then to the filter.
2) Oil is not splashing from the pan to the crank. This is why there's baffles and deep sumps used and having the crank hit the oil in the pan would cause foaming (hint: foam = air = air doesn't lubricate)
3) The crank, cylinder walls, and pistons are all constantly sprayed with oil...that's been through the filter.

Original fill oil is very high in moly. Not to mention that the main issue with a super aggressive break in isn't wear, it's HEAT. Properly heat cycling everything and not letting things get overly hot while the friction is still relatively high compared to a fully broken in motor. Moly combats this. The same goes for the drivetrain (If you've ever had a break in a new ring and pinion you know this...)

Yes, not sure on the twins though. Toyota break in filter looks like this
Do you really need to be spoon fed? Ignorance is curable, do some reading, please.
