Lol, because the mtg said so? I mean, they're only engineers who happened to also design the car so, I guess they don't know what they're talking about....
Likely, the residual oil in the bearings is enough to lubricate adequately UP TO 50 km OR UP TO 50km/hr. Longer distances and higher speeds will run through that residual oil and once gone will cause excessive friction and wear/scoring/gouging on the bearings.
This is one of those times where ymmv. Good luck, not worth the effort and small money saved in my opinion.
