Oh and ran mine in by driving it properly from day one, drove it hard, and it hasn't used a drop of oil in over 4000 miles.

Yes, i fully agree with you, full syntetic oil is'nt good for running in engines, my honda dealer in france told me that the oil which comes in the car after manifacture is thin oil special for running-in the engine, so i do recognize that oil consumption may exist, personally, i too have not consummed any oil and drove the car hard and progressive.
