You want opinions, so here's mine...
I would run 50:1 premium synthetic oil. Be sure it is for air cooled engines.
I run it in everything, never had a problem. Chances are you are not running the weed wacker at full throttle and full load continuously. The max oil ratio is only needed under those conditions. Even then, if a chain saw can handle 50:1, and run full power, everything else should be a breeze!
What I have seen from running too much oil, and running cheap generic oil, it tends to carbon up the exhaust side of the piston and cylinder wall. The carbon gets in the ring land, sticks the ring, also the build up and crowds the piston over, loosing clearance to the point of having a seizure.
