Castrol GTX High Mileage (green bottle)

Anyone know if "Castrol GTX High Mileage" 10W30 (green bottle) engine oil is any better than the regular Castrol GTX? Says it's for engines with over 75,000 miles. Does it possibly have any beneficial additives?

It's more marketing than anything else. I would stick with the regular GTX for a conventional oil.

It protects worn seals better from leaking. We're supposed to use
5w-30 in maximas...
