That seems doubtful
I'm not sure how tight tolerances lead to sludge. But after sludge occurs, I can see how sludge in a tight tolerance engine can cause more damage. If the viscosity gets too high, because of sludge, then there will be higher bearing wear.
I think cause and effect are being conflated together here.

Re: That seems doubtful
That's what I was thinking. Tolerances sounds not right, but tighter/smaller/poorly designed oil passages may be what they're referring to.
However, there must be some factual evidence to make the 'tolerance' claim though...interesting.
