They choose the one vehicle you aren't supposed to put synthetic in for their ad.

Or else Mazda would have stated that you must use special "Rotary Blend Oil", as opposed to a blanket about synth in this engine.
A lot more information is found here

Well, if that commercial was made when the FD was new, IIRC Mazda's official stance at that time was no synthetic in the rotary, so it would have been ironic. I think that's what the original poster meant, everyone knows synthetic is okay these days...
