Short answer to the OP's question: I would, and it won't hurt anything if somehow it's overkill.
I like to stack the cards in my favor, so to speak, and so far that's paid off.

I started drag racing in the '60s, and paying attention to oil, and there were indeed different weights & of course brands; non-detergent was available but not popular, and was pretty much an oddity.
ZDDP & phosphorous were reduced from previous levels in the mid-90s. So yes, there was more of both previously.
IIRC, that was an emissions deal, maybe for catalytic converter efficiency ? Sulphur in diesel fuel was also reduced for the cats.
The newer vehicles were switching to roller lifters, or had already, so the levels for FT stuff were de-prioritized.
