They are of course fine to mix, it's a requirement of API certification that oils be mixable.
Interesting. I for-see 2 plausible paths, either I'm sure are okay.

1) Utilize the "Supercar" Castrol formula from this point forward - OR

2) Make change to BMW's Shell formula - and use from this point forward

- Though, I haven't come across anyone publically logging their S65 engine/ mileage with the Shell oil?

Either way - Am probably just amplifying this out of proportion.
