I agree with Joe here. The oil might have been the 'agent of change' but the
fault lies more with the driving/maintenance style, expecting the synthetic
oil to be magical cure-all and making an uninformed decision. If the
journalist is writing from the standpoint that it is the oil at fault, then he
is doing his readers a great dis-service by not educating them on proper
servicing and understanding of the differences between oils. With an article
like that, a teaching article, they might keep someone else from making the
same mistake.
