drove the 992 about 7-10 miles with 1.5 Q low oil.. should I be worried?

Actually pretty straight forward. Changing plugs does need to have the tires removed...

I read a statistic on cars that are drive 10k+ a year vs cars that sit a lot and drive less than 5.. and oddly, the ones used more last longer and suffer fewer breakdowns.. win/win.. that said, I drive a lot, and my 2022 Suburu Outback already has 4500 miles... it's more my road trip car anyway.

If your oil pressure was normal and your temp was normal you are fine. If there was insufficient oil in the engine driving 7-10 miles would have been more than far enough to destroy the engine. I believe I am correct in saying that these cars have a dry sump, and the engine is fed under pressure from a remote oil reservoir.
