Has Honda fixed the oil dilution problem with their new 1.5L turbo?

Hello 

I'm currently looking forward to buy the 2022 Civic Si once it comes out. I'm looking for a fun zippy car that comes with a manual transmission. I heard that Honda 1.5 turbos have oil dilution problems and that's scaring me a bit since I value reliability in a car.  Is the problem completely fixed or should I wait until I can afford a type R?(It seems like the K20 motors are a lot stronger and reliable than the L15 motors).

They seem to have but I have a customer with an older one and all he did was switch to the new 0w 16 oil and the problem stopped entirely he had the oil and eyes that an oil analysis company and the dilution went away when he switched from the 0w 20 oil to that new 0w 16 that's made for that
