Moly has many attributes the primary one being friction reduction ( the slickest material maother nature makes and the second hardest). Once it plates up it stays there and withstands up to 500,000 psi. Moly is also negatively charged as is dirt, a plus. It also enhances the other additves and works as an anti-oxidant. Is it necessary, of course, not.
As with all oils and greases many factors contribute. i think an a/c base is the best start in this arena.
