Some of the variances in opinions pertain to what temperatures the vehicle will be driven in the most. What works best in 100 degree Summer heat may not be a good choice for below freezing temps.

Exactly.
But since any location has a vast difference between summer and winter temps, a person has to decide on an oil that will work over the entire range, unless they plan to change it seasonally - PITA!!!!
