Agreed but that is minuscule wouldn't even show up on the dip stick. folks on the OPs are talking about 1/2 - 1 full quart low thats what...7-15% of the cars oil capacity?? Come-on scrming, I would think surely you would have to raise an eyebrow on that much loss. If I loose 7-15% of my oil in 6k you can bet your last dollar I'm looking for a reason as to why.... not marking it off as simply normal operating parameters
