Yeah, of course they'll say not to use 87 and will specify 91 minimum. I'm just saying they likely haven't changed their requirements for how the engine deals with lower-octane fuel should it find it's way into the engine. I would guess that the new engine's susceptibility to damage or poor-running from lower-octane fuel is the same as the current lower-CR engine. I.e., nothing to worry about for most of us.
