@Dackelone This research would tend to support your comments:

By the way, K&N filters do not use gauze. They use a pleated multi-layered oil impregnated surgical cotton fabric.
A K&N facts sheet is shown here.
The Latin for what I am reading is 'argumentum ad populum', which translates as just because a lot of people say the same thing, it doesn't make it true.
