I'm not especially worried about anything, but you said:

I was only pointing out the reality is that no other fluid including Amsoil, Castrol or Valvoline have the ATF DW-1 specification, so if you really wanted to "stick to DW1 spec fluid" as you said there is only one way to do so.
And as far as it being "magical" that's not a technical term I use. However, it is different as MolaKule has shown.
This topic seems to be a difficult one for some certain boutique brand users.
I was referring to any aftermarket fluid that has the DW1 label go with that. There's plenty of aftermarkets out there that fit the bill.
