People tend to be funny with fuel.
UNIPET/NP have the same source-Petrotrin...yet people swear by x or y Marketer, station, and frankly even which PUMP they take fuel from.
With a product whose use is so ubiquitous it would be difficult to keep a 'conspiracy'...political or otherwise quiet.
Keep in mind that if a used tested the gas, ANY user and determined that the gas is sub spec....its a FATAL LEGAL nightmare...due again to the volume of people that involved as users...and in the supply chain.

A lot of people don't understand that when you change coolant, it is a good idea to change your thermostat, heat sensor, and radiator cap. They work together to regulate engine temp.
