It also might eliminate the need for an oil cooler block off plate in cooler temps. (like one of these... DIY: Oil Cooler Block Off Plate)

Try thinking outside of the box.

I'm thinking more so of an extra five feet per feed and return line. That would be nearly a quart of oil most likely more just to feed the lines. Not to mention that's way to much strain on the oil pump causing lower oil pressure. Matter of fact the oil pump probably can't handle that. That's just basic logic.
