I have a different conclusion: 275F indicated, ~255F sump oil temps are likely not a problem even for good synth 0w20, but I run 5w30 with high HTHS (3.5) anyway. IMO there is no issue here to begin with.
At those temps, how much flow do you think they have, vs what we have in a FA20/FA24?

Food for thought, as if you want to look at the data, you should consider ALL the data, rather than just a few.
