Well, one oil must promote minimal to no drag and remove any opportunity for metal on metal contact - especially in soft metals - and the other must retain it's cooling and lubricating properties over a wide spectrum of temperatures and pressures, taking into account movement and expansion/contraction of multiple moving parts. Putting the wrong oil in one can be as potentially damaging as the other; the value of the bike is neither here nor there.
Not sure why you are getting so excited about the whole thing....the function of oil in one is totally different to the other. Use the right oil or the wrong oil and either win or lose....it's only a grands worth of turntable after all.
