You ever heard the saying "like oil and water"? Oil doesn't mix with water. It floats on the surface. Adding it just wastes 100% of the oil.
Oh, thank you for providing me with this rare knowledge. But what happens while you boil pasta, is pasta turning around and soaking the oil in. I wouldn't be doing that if it wouldn't help with pasta stickiness.
And as other people comment here, oil gets into pasta so you can have a problem with sauce not soaking in, but when I'm making something like bolognese, I sometimes pour pasta into the frying pan with the sauce, so it's getting there for sure.
That's not what happens
It doesn't, it prevents boilover
Okay, okay, oil doesn't help me at all, what am I doing!
