Okay so dust under 10u will go out the exhaust, so will larger dust, sand, hell I've even seen chunks of piston make it into the exhaust. The problem is what it'll do on the way through and abrasive is abrasive. Some of that stuff does go for a ride on the cylinder walls for a while, the reason for filtration in the first place.
Yes pros use them, if I were tearing an engine down after a race anyway and .1second can mean finishing in the money I'd run the least restriction possible too and the hell with engine life.
Maybe I try too hard to get my stuff to last, the truck will probably get crashed or rusted before the engine dies anyway. I'll do my best to put good lubes and filters in it and have a liner slip, ... but for now I'm trying to do what's best for the engine.
