we changed oil not because it "broke down" but because of contaminants. If one could fine filter the used oil, it can be used for years and years. Once an eminent tribologist (forner president of the Gear Institute, ASME, ...) told us that he found no noticeable difference b/w oil and water in engine tests, only that water evaporates quickly...
As far oil, I would say 10% is science and 90% pure Marketing...
