Default brake fluid in oil

My uncle told about an idea they used to use to prevent oil from burning. He told me to add a little brake fluid to your oil and it will expand your seals. I looked it up and other people have talked about it but no one acually said they tried it. Let me know what yall think.

sprinkling sugar in the oil fill will also restore worn bearings.

Don't shady dealerships add brake fluid in cars they are about to sell when they know the motor is crap?

I prefer the "sawdust in the oil" trick to prevent knocking.

I always thought it was tranny fluid and that you put a little bit in each cylinder.
