When I changed my intake hose with a silicone one I saw carbon deposits after the throttle butterfly, and as I think my millage went up slightly, I'll use before my next oil change some intake cleaner along with a good polyetheramine fuel/injector cleaner (35.000km car)
But it seems I am the exception, not the rule, have I miss something?

Correct most tuners especiaply on petrol and lower octane petrol will run less port injection than standard tune especially at high loads high rpm.
It likely not a big problem for deposits if you still running 30 or 40% port at lower rpm lower load where most driving is done and most deposits form.
Cars driven at high speeds and loads likely get less deposits anyway.
The 2017 and later cars ran avout 30% port at high spped/loads where the earlier cars ran zero to 20%. So there may have been a reason for that change but may have been emissions related.
The depisits or carbon you see in the throttke body are more likely due to OCV carankcase gasses or the EGR done via the strange values in the stock intake cam tables round 2000 rpm.
For that yoy likly need upper cylinder engine cleaner sprayed into intake as per subaru recomendation every 6 months.
Fuel additives might help with injectors in places where fuel quality is low.
I use the upper cylinder cleaner but i never get any noticable smoke out exhaust
however i do ise 30% port at high rpm and loads in my tune and im on ethanol E85 fuel which burns very clean (. 7 years no issues)
