But isn't that what General Discussion is for? Not everybody would of read previous discussions and it was sparked by a genuine question from the op. Not everyone will be aware of the various types IAT, OAT,SOAT etc and many suppliers make statements of suitable for all, but that is the usual marketing BS.
At the end of the day the owner can choose to use whatever they feel is best for their car.
