You're paying for an uber-premium oil - - use it and stop adding to the waste oil reclamation issue and reap the potential savings available to you.

FWIW, that's a great UOA, numbers look very good.
I had the Dyson analysis done but I feel like I have "Fight Club" rules with his comments - I am not really supposed to talk about it. That is why his comments are not in the PDF but now come in a .wav file. The flashpoint is low and the other metals that are high indicate wear caused by soot in the oil.

I did change the oil too early. This is the first fill I put into the car and I do not have a history on what was used before. My concern was that if the PO did not care for the car, the M1 would loosen a ton of crud. Going forward I will not be changing the oil this often.

Go here for uber premium oil. Who's gonna pull the trigger on a $100 oil change?

I was wondering how you knew my name. That's what I get for posting from work on a very busy day.
