i don't think you really searched....
but anyways. i think these results speak for themselves:

simply, it is a specific type of oil that is made to mix with gasoline prior to combustion to lubricate metal on metal parts.

looks like you're the one whining, the information is there, help yourself

Searched for premix advantages... not rocket science
Everyone one of those threads has information, go read. Come back and act like an expert on the subject, because if you read all of it, you'll be damn near it.
EDIT:
Listen I'm sorry, but don't try to tell us the information isn't there, everyone in this forum thats been here for more than a month has sees the same advantage/disadvantages threads get bumped on a weekly basis. No one here will offer helping you if you don't help yourself first. Some of us mighty pity you though, and help because of that... Kinda takes all the fun out of it though.
You'll learn that owning a rx7 is alot like going to school, a shitload of homework you don't want to do, but are forced to whenever something breaks on your car.

Since we've got that clearned up...
Advantages - better apex/housing lubrication, don't have to fill your oil at every other gas fillup.
Disadvantages - most premix oils aren't fully compatible with catalytic converters, and now you ahve to add TCW-3 premix to your gas tank at EVERY fillup.
Miss a few fillups and pop goes the wankle.
Thats only if you disable the OMP though...

hahaha, to add fuel to this fire that we're about to start, it makes you wonder why mazda didn't use a premix system instead of the OMP. I spose theres a few reasons if I think about it.
Remember, consider this a daily driver for a guy/girl who doesn't know **** about cars, just wants something fast from the dealership
-An unnatractive sale feature. People who don't understand will think "It takes two stroke? wth kind of car is this"
-Another maintenence chore, non caring customers would forget to fill the premix tub in the engine bay and sooner or later...
Premix honestly, from what I've seen, is far far superior to oil injection. You get a perfect blend of lubricant in the fuel, oiling all parts of the apex seal instead of an injection feature that partially mixes. Still works, but premix will make your engine last longer.
Carbon buildup is nil with premix, everything is lubricated and the mix is such a small ratio that it burns very well in the chamber.
meh.. I've thought of premix, but I really want to justify my oil injector lines plus, I really don't want to fill the tank with a bottle of two stroke. Thats just me.
One day I'll go premix I spose...
