I am sure Jake is correct.He knows more about this subject than Porsche!
But for users who do no more than 'spirited' driving,is all this extra equipment necessary? If using the 'right' oil guards against all the issue Jake mentions, the slight premium for the 'right' oil seems both trivial and easy.
A +2qt.deep sump would provide a little extra cooling and a buffer against temperature spikes? And way cheaper/simpler.

The TTP Oil Safer is approx $1,900 -$2500++delivered.cough
There is some similarity(reported) to a Porsche system:
996 107 980 00 'oil pump'
996 107 984 02 'suction tube'
