That's one of the reasons. A solid body lifter will help that, but it's still 16 large oil leaks.

Agreed but if you go back and read the old Chrysler engine book,
at the time it was written there was plenty of roller lifters on the market at the time with an oil band cut out just like in the video, and Chrysler recommended to tube or bush the block to prevent low oil pressure with this type of lifter as well.
