Oh, thank you for providing me with this rare knowledge. But what happens while you boil pasta, is pasta turning around and soaking the oil in. I wouldn't be doing that if it wouldn't help with pasta stickiness.
And as other people comment here, oil gets into pasta so you can have a problem with sauce not soaking in, but when I'm making something like bolognese, I sometimes pour pasta into the frying pan with the sauce, so it's getting there for sure.

That's not what happens

It doesn't, it prevents boilover

A wooden spoon across the top of the pot prevents boilover, so why waste the oil?

Yeah people say that but it has literally never worked for me lmao. Great way for me to make a mess

Okay, okay, oil doesn't help me at all, what am I doing!
