Looks like you were due for a change. That iron seems high but I guess the lab didn't consider the iron as being "elevated" compared to what they see universally. May just be normal for that engine.

Surprisingly high 100c cSt with a 1.27 FD.. maybe the 0w40 helped you out some there but couldn't save your TBN @1.2..you might consider looking for a lube with a higher starting BN or consider shorter oci's.

Where'd all the Ca come from?

Available. I don't like thit [censored]
 
While you technically still have some reserve alkalinity, the TBN is IMO low enough to be concerned about corrosion. I'm surprised your 100c kv is at 12+. Seems you either thickened up or the 40 grade bumped you up???
 
This Mobil 1 ESP has a HTHS greater than 3.5... it is a thick 30 grade from the get go.

Most 30 grade oils we see are 2.9 to 3.2 HTHS...

I have read where the ESP version of Mobil 1 is a great oil but in gasoline motors it will not necessarily hold it's TBN up very well if the gasoline is higher in sulfur...
