Are you consuming oil now?
Probably not.
The Cats will live a long life.

I never run low-saps oil, and my 220,000 mile F150 (4.6 liter) cats still work fine.

I guess the main concern with full SAPS are valve deposits.
However I've found the perfect oil that checks all boxes.

Shell Helix Ultra 5w30
SN-Plus / MB229.5 / BMW LL01

people complain about saps & cat,gpf dpf.
but i think the dpf flushing fluids could fix that. not just carbon.
