I've always been a big fan of keeping it simple. I use what Honda recommends. If you use something better, that is supposed to last longer than the oil that the manufacturer recommends, then yes, the MM is useless for oil life.Keep in mind the oil life "monitor" doesn't know whether you're running full synthetic, synthetic blend, or Astroglide in the crankcase. It calculates remaining oil life mathematically assuming you are using the type of oil recommended in the owner's manual.
