They seem to be saying they are venting air with oil in it to the atmosphere.
That means on the road which is illegal and why the stock system is a closed loop.
Something like a Provent 200, made in Germany, will stop virtually all the oil and allow you to still use a closed loop by taking it back in after the airfilter but before the turbo. Mine was still dry after 40,000km and lots of oil drained off.

No oil comes out of the catch can, period. On the other hand when you route it back to your turbo inlet you do cause problems for multiple reasons. I'm not sure where some of you guys are coming up with this basic design being anything less than a fully tested and proven system over numerous years and on numerous application. There's no debating that.
