No, I won't, and I'm not. The ECM would also stroke-out because this would definitely throw a viscosity CEL.
This is also wild speculation about:
A) that the UOA PPM figures directly correlate with wear (they don't)
B) that an insanely heavy oil will reduce that figure
C) that B would result in lower actual wear, something that is only discernible via tear-down.
My 6.4L, on 0W-40 (so, considerably heavier, now, caveat that it has lower mileage and arguably probably still breaking-in) its most recent UOA was 4.93ppm/1,000 miles.
This engine family, the GM small blocks, the Ford large V8's...etc, they all throw more iron per 1,000 miles than most of the small bore V and inline engines.
The 3.699ppm/1,000 miles from this run compares well with these:

4.39ppm/1,000 miles:
This is of my 2010 Range Rover with the 5.0 Naturally Aspirated V8. We are the original owner, it's been running the same viscosity (5W-40/0W-40) for the last 10 years and we have never run an interval over 6k miles. I started doing these analysis after the vehicle went over the 100k mark, it...

Oil in use one year and a few days. Towards the very end of interval was ~3,400 miles over 5 days of towing a 7,500# (total) U-haul trailer with vehicle to Moab from Alabama and back. (FWIW, averaged 8.1 mpg on trip out and 9.1 mpg on trip back. Engine worked pretty hard.) Day after trip was a...

2016 GMC Suburban 5.3L, AMSOIL 0W-20,
3.02ppm/1,000 miles:
Seems our Suburban does way better using E85 100%. That and turning off the active fuel management made a difference. Water is way down and is a good indicator on using E85 as well as fuel dilution.
