Adding oil very slightly decreases your methanol and nitromethane percentages.
It doesn't really but it seems to because of the way percentages are worked out using the total mix of oil/methanol/nitro. If you look at that table where 5% oil gets added there's 67% methanol and 15% nitro so they're in a ratio of 4.47:1 (which is what the needle valve is tuned to) and after adding extra oil the table says there's 64.48% methanol and 14.44% nitro which is still a ratio of 4.47:1 and all that's needed is a slight "richening" of the needle to account for the extra volume of oil.
An easier way to think about it is if there was a 50/50 mix of methanol and nitro. No matter how much oil you add there's always still a 50/50 mix. Even easier is a fuel with no nitro. With any amount of oil you still tune just for the methanol going into the engine.
