Saponification doesn't end at trace so there is no guarantee that the oil
added at trace is the only oil that will be not taken up by the lye

So whats your opinion on adding small amounts of oil at trace. I have read
quite a bit about this and there seems to be some debate over whether it
makes any difference adding oils at trace or in the base oil mixture. Some
soapers seem to think that it gives you more control over what oils are not
affected by the lye, eg adding a small amount of avocado at trace would
leave it less affected and it would keep more of its qualities than if you
add it to your main mix which is mixed with the lye..thoughts? experiences?
experiments? Evidence based data? .......
