With regards to the oil pressure going down when the throttle is advanced, valves are more efficient at higher speeds.

Lets make this simple...how do you think your engine oil gets dirty with carbon if there is no significant blow by??
That condescending tone at the end is a nice touch. I don't need simplification. What I need is for you to clarify your definition of "significant blowby." It's not even clear if you're talking about oil dilution or thickening. A new engine does not have "significant" blowby. In addition and I repeat, the behavior outlined in the original post is the opposite of how you describe blowby to affect oil pressure.
