Probably more than a liter of oil despite the slightly lower volume,
since they do not normally use quarts in Norway.

There are (or at least were) burrowing owls at the velodrome in Broward
County.

They also promotes peristalsis. You end up getting the runs in the
middle of a ride.

Magnesium still sucks as a structural material for a vibratory load.

I think I spent $450 9 years ago for my CAAD2 frame & fork, on sale. I
thought it was a lot, but then I was used to buying complete bikes for
not a lot more.

I think the reality is that anything aluminum is going to be compared to
mass-produced frames which are unbelievably cheap because of Asian
production and/or automated manufacturing. I bought a complete MTB last
year just for the frame. CF still commands a premium because of the
labor costs, although the price of CF forks have plummeted, probably a
predictor of future frame prices.

Bike stuff has a real steep knee in the price/performance curve
(whatever "performance' is -- usually weight). It's easy to get swept
up, particularly in a fancy LBS. My epiphany came when I was heading to
the cash register with a pair of $60 tires.

I'm curious what you mean by that.

I don't know much about Mg alloy's properties, but the only glaring
shortcomings I've noted are susceptibility to corrosion and iffy
thread holding.

Is there an exaggerated fatigue issue with Mg that I've not heard
about? Cast Mg fork lowers seem to hold up OK, and it looks like they
see some vibratory loads.
