Please people, we are (almost) all adults here. Lets stop the finger pointing and name calling.

...anyway. My main desire for a bypass filter is to get as much soot and sub 10micron junk as possible. yes, the OE filter has a bypass in it but it's not the ideal media. Some use cotton waste that is PURE cr@p and others use twine/string. Those are better but the TP filters are more dense and can get the sub 1micron junk out (soot).

Most OEM's don't have one because it adds extra cost to the build, is a few more parts to stock and is one more filter to change during a service.

Now, going 100K miles on the "same" oil is very excessive to save $90 a year. Changing 1Q oil in a 9Q system is NOT going to rplenish all the additives you need to go over 10,000 miles. 5,000 miles, mabye.
