Higher compression buns more of the
fuel and captures more of the thermal expansion in the form of
mechanical piston energy. Basic physics.

Diesel engines have a longer TBO than gasoline engines also, don't
they? Given the higher temperatures and pressures, that seems to fly
in the face of basic physics, but I suppose it's a result of lower RPM
operation.

I think those Theilberts are throw away at 1800 hours or something...
