Sorry to be skeptical, but I just don't see the need, especially with how relatively good the basic oils on the market are these days. I think they're up to SJ, if I'm not mistaken. Every time they go to the next letter, they've improved something with the oil.
X2!!

Could not agree more with this statement.

Oil additives only mask a hidden problem. But hey if it works for you and your older engine or whatever application you have then by all means go for it.
