Would a catch can reduce oil consumption?

First of all, I need to determine that I have oil consumption, but my oil is going somewhere.

However, I know that I have a transmission leak, so improving the oil situation might not matter if I cannot fix the transmission.

I ran across the Champrius Instagram account, caught up on the thread here, and then started looking at a couple of threads that he started.

He mentioned catch cans and I watched several videos.

They seem recommended if you have a turbo or GDI, but generally people seem to agree that older cars may benefit from them.

I just don't think this would target the biggest problem.
