Your disbelief in manufacturer's claims about extended drain interval is understandable, but (only) oil analysis is proven method to confirm or deny them. Besides acquiring a trust into (particular) manufacturer’s claim you'll have (very) pragmatic view into engine condition. That is “the tool” for making a selection between manufacturers by eliminating dishonest ones (if there are).
Complying with time based oil analysis is nothing else that giving money away. By my opinion worse of that is to arbitrarily decide about time for oil change. Should we believe that you have (much) better tests and methods than laboratories?
