Almost all the advice floating around on the internet regarding oils and engines is marketing and the placebo effect of paying more money for something and feeling an improvement. Your list looks fine and it looks like you did your homework before even posting +1 to you.
The only additional thing I might recommend is an Engine Oil Analysis. It may tell you if something isn't quite right but if you have 60k with no issues I doubt you will have any problems anytime soon. They are not too expensive in the grand scheme of things and give you a lot of info.
BTW I use the same exact oil in my car (Redline 5W-30) I also use a magnetic drain plug and a magnet on the filter too. I didn't notice too much picked up by the drain plug but these days less and less engine parts are made from iron.
PS I don't know how true this is but it was on Wikipedia so it must be true =) The VSD fluid breaks down in about 30k miles. How's your's holding up @60k?
