Default Fuel for a BGX?

Hi,
I wonder why OS recommends 18% oil for the BGX-180 (35cc) twostroke? and the 160FX.
Italian made supertigers recommended 10-12% oil for the S2500, S3000, G3250 and 8-10% oil for the G4500.
I know moki also recommends 18% oil for the 180-210, but does anyone knows why?

Is there any logical reason for that high oil recommendation?

The oil recommendation is based upon power and RPM. The O.S. Max BGX-1 3500 turns much more RPM and has a higher power output than the SuperTigre. It needs the higher-oil fuel.
