I
would guess that the difference lies in mixed versus injected oil. Mixed
may condense a bit on the combustion chamber wall a bit but will mostly burn
away, whereas injected oil is dribbled into the vicinity of the apex seals and
may stay cold enough next to the walls to mostly not burn.

Both are indicators that at least the MMO is not being burned.
Don't know if not enough time in contact with combustion gasses or
why.

So if it's not being
burned, does that mean it's not forming any deposits either? Heck, you
would think it would be preferable to have an oil that could continue to
lubricate, rather than going up in flame.
