Chevy (for the Corvette) even has a published bulletin that says 1 qt per 500 miles is acceptable if used in an aggressive manner (aggressive being defined as operation above 3000RPM's...LOL). A quart between changes, or even 2 in a 3700 mile change interval would not be considered excessive enough to warrant correction with most all companies...
When you get into the serious usage area (exceeding a Qt/thousand) they will do a monitored test by documenting miles and sealing your oil fill to determine true usage.
Very true. My Subaru did not burn oil, it drank it and the compression was always spot on.
