Nice report! I have a couple of questions/comments.
questions: 1. Is this FST (with Titanium) Edge or the original SM recipe? ( OOps, missed that Ti is 0 so this is the original, API SM Edge.) 2. What were you using for an air filter during this interval? Comments: The oil "sheared" to a 20wt, a product mostly of the fuel dilution. Blackstone uses a less sensitive "open cup" flash point to calculate fuel dilution so your oil contains much more fuel than shown here. (This is not a slam on the fine folks at Blackstone, it's just the nature of the method.) Using more precise methods such a gas chromatography (GC) I would bet you'd be showing between 1.5-2% fuel dilution. Wear metals look very good for the interval. I would not stretch the drain interval any longer. 10k mi, max so you have some headroom left. Good show for the Edge. I have the FST Edge in my car right now. I also have some of this SM rated Edge in my stash as well.
