Oil filter adapter

Can't really answer that with a blanket statement. Any engine will create wear materials and those will always be a variable.
What I am concerned with is the control of collateral damages associated with failures that start simple, but quickly become engine wide after the engine oil is contaminated.
The majority of engines that can't be saved end up terminally ill due to wear and other issues associated with collateral damages stemming from material laden oil.
The primary failure is seldom what keeps the engine from being resurrected after failure. The secondary collateral damages are what open the wallet far and wide.

I sense another patent in the works...OBG(oil bypass guardian) as a backup to the IMS guardian which is a backup to the IMS retrofit.

Can't answer that question with any accuracy.
Since you are I'm Canada I'd expect most all of your cold start-ups are bypassing the factory filter filter. That's merely an assumption.
Create your own study and share your findings.

Mostly the neverending quest to idiotproof vehicles. Also 20,000 mile recommended oil change intervals.

There are a lot of "experts" on this forum that like to challenge many posters posts. If you are going to challenge their post you'd best post a plausible "backup" based on experience and research not just hearsay and circumstantial evidence. More of you wait for Jake to post so you can disagree or bash him than to contribute to the forum. If you don't like what he is "spewing" then move on to the next topic. GOOD LORD!
