Exactly! An elaborate 7 step procedure like the one above has never had the steps tested for efficacy. It would be almost impossible to run a full experimental design for all the parameters. It would involve 36 separate experiments (forget the hang dry step) with some replicates. At 3000 miles per test, 108,000 miles of testing without any replicates. It’s not something that would give results quickly.
And after all that testing, you’ll likely find that the chain lasts about the same.
