Why? Oil is oil.... its not really rocket science.
If you compare the specs on the 0W30 castrol, its closer to most other 10W40 oils. The # rating only specifies a range of viscosity (cST).
0w30 is just too thin for the m20. The e30s I have heard running 0w30 have horrible valve tick. Its best suited for a 10w40 to 20w50.
