Higher octane gas is usually LESS volatile than lower octane stuff, so 93 may actually vaporize more readily from the oil than will the 94 and higher stuff. Also, there may be an additive (detergent etc) in one brand that clings to the cylinder walls better than that in others, so a tiny bit more of it gets into the oil.

No worry, man!
