it doesn't...(maybe that's the point you're making) but then again most ppl don't experience 115 degree weather 4 months out of the year. for the general public I'd imagine 5w-30 would do just fine, however a higher viscosity oil still makes sense for the few that experience these temps this time of the year :shrug:
