It's pretty common for vehicles that burns oil to reduce or even stop burning oil after doing "italian tune up".
Sorry. Maybe you misunderstood what I asked for. Because nowhere in my post did I mention anything about what you responded too.

I'm asking what factual, scientific, empirical evidence you are basing this assumption off.

These specific claims. Do you have ANY sort of empirical evidence to back any of this up? Anything at all?

"Nope 75mph is not enough hot.
You need to at least redline full throttle through 2 - 3 gears. or if automatic. full throttle a couple times from 35 - 80mph. It's a combination of heat and pressure. Just heat is not enough, you need pressure to expand the rings and blow the carbon out of the exhausts. This is why sometimes you see a cloud of black smoke when a car accelerate. New engines once out of breaking in millage should exercise full throttle before 2000 miles and redline before 3000 miles then change the oil."

"Most engine damages are caused by either bad design of faulty assembly."

"Babying and lugging an engine is worse than using all the rpms."

"Most black smoke you see is the carbon build up collecting on the inside of the exhaust piping and sometimes on the valves."

"Babying an engine really is not a good thing. You think you are preserving the engine but what you are doing is allowing carbon to build up and gets wedged in between the piston rings and now allowing the rings to seal properly. Also piston rings never had the chance to expand and contract letting these carbon deposits out. Over time you have a stuck ring, now it starts letting oil pass though which just makes things ever worse. Also carbon can build up in the cats causing excessive back pressure and that can cause even more issues like excessive cylinder temperature. My WRX does not burn noticeable amount because I pretty much red line her once a day once it's fully warmed up."
