No not a myth at all....those higher priced premium brands spend more time and money pre-conditioning their motor internals to mitigate early break-in synthetic oil usage.

OTHERWISE, for owners of other cars, one should NOT use synthetic oil before the engine is broken in, and to do so can effect engine performance down the road.
