Default Comp Pro Cam Lube?

I saw Comp's Pro Cam Lube oil on TR's site, and it seems like a good idea to get it when I do my cam install. Is really any better then just using regular mobil 1 oil when lubing the cam for install? Here's the description.

Initial start-up is the most critical time in the life of any camshaft. Comp Cams has taken great pains to develop what we feel is the best protective break-in lubricant on the market. It must be spread genrously on all lobes of the cam, on the bottom of the lifters, and on the distributor gear when installing a cam. This is the instant protection you need to guard against any premature wear.
Is it worth getting you think or just a bunch of B.S.

i used it. cam was sitting in the motor for ~5 months before start up though. for just quick cam swap i'd just coat in oil.
