back to the Oil consumption,
This engine is happier being driven harder than easier. Higher temperatures, more metal expansion, tighter sealing and less oil usage. K.ind of like SR22,s that leaked fuel until they were at full cruising in the air at mach 5.
And there is some anecdotal evidence posted in various threads on other forums that some owners see less oil consumption tracking the car then putzing around town so there may be something to this theory. My own experience seems to point to a similar outcome - it seems the easier I drive this car the more oil it consumes.

It’s SR-71 and it’s max speed was just over Mach 3.
