No. You dont.

Because YOU haven't tested it.
I have.

You drink water when you're thirsty because you know it works, from experience.
I add BA the engines because I know it works, from experience.

The research institutes who tested in engines got 6 to 10% better fuel economy in the light load situations you last insisted on.
(And that was on a tight new engine IIRC)
Their peers reviewed the research and agree, so the papers were published.
Done.

All you're doing now is making it so anyone who does try it wont post.
I recommend that you go back over what you've posted, re-read what Dr. Ali Erdemir actually 'said' about 'boron, what I've posted, and then think about the perception of factual inadequacies others might experience while comparing your 'experience' with reality, then see if you might want to look for 'holes' in your arguments that you might have missed, which make it very difficult for us to navigate.

As to 'light load', I never insisted on that.
Here in the United States, fuel economy of all vehicles certified for sale, are computed from the results of five ( 5 ) different EPA test protocols, not any 'single' test.
No single EcoModder road test that any of us can perform can satisfy the scientific vigor of four (4) internationally recognized automotive test protocols, each of which produces a different 'mpg' for an identical car ( EPA, NEDC, WLTP, CLTC ).
