Dad and I were Snapper dealers for 20 years. We sold two brothers identical mowers. 28 inch RER 11hp. The brothers were John Deere guys. One thought he could run his mower 200hrs on an oil change because he used Deere oil and it was better than gold. We put a new engine on his mower every other year.The oil would look like road tar. Seven engines total if I remember right.
His younger brother also ran Deere oil. But changed it once a year. I only remember replacing his engine once.I think he used that mower for 21 years.He now has a ZTR.
The older brother now has a Cub Cadet with a Kolher engine. He won't let anyone work on it but the dealer( 65 miles away) that sold it to him touch it. His brother told me the Cub Cadet has had at least four engines. If he would change his oil more than 200 hrs. it would save a lot of $$$$.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
