It would be illegal to sell a system that DOES NOT collect blowby back into the intake system. I have to assume this is the reason the system is designed with the return.
For many of us, it is not the oil in the intake that is toublesome, but the heat. Many of us don't have a probem with excessive liquid blowby, so oil is not a factor. Maybe those who experience the Porsche approved 9 gallons of oil consumption every 15,000 miles should figure out how to stop the buirning before being concerned about an intake line. Stopping the use of Mobil Water might be a good place to start.

The AOS have coolant lines to cool the air as it goes by... The engine temp seems to be running the same as stock... if not cooler. Recently, I got a secondary air injection error on the CEL... isnt this oil related? As for your 0w-40 comment, I agree that would help... hell you can run 1/2 a quart less and would help a great deal, but you have to admit this setup needs some type of catch can.

not really, by not having air flow you are not getting rid of the foam in the oil, that is why the air/oi seperator is there in the first place.
people have tried to use a breather (air filter) to vent it to air and have a catch can to collect the oil... but blown996 has experience of it not doing a good job, which I tend to think that his setup is not big enough to do what is intended... its tough cause the space is very limited in the engine bay.

There is no need for vacuum to the intake. Maybe people are experiencing excess foam because they are running an inferior oil. Mine has worked for the last 40,000 miles. No Porsche, expecially a blown porsche should be running Mobil 0W40.
