If you have no boost enrichment, you dont get more power. I dont think
I have ever seen a turbo diesel engine without some sort of enrichment
setup.

engines, and if I was designing a turbo diesel I would add the same.
That doesn't mean the engine will self destruct or not work correctly
without them! They are good features to have on a diesel engine which
make it run better, but you'll find plenty of reliable and durable
turbo diesel engines without oil squirters or boost enrichment.
It's absurd to accuse me of thinking I "know better" than Mercedes to
think those features aren't absolutely necessary. Mercedes isn't in
the business of doing only what is necessary to have a simple reliable
vehicle. They have a specific purpose, cost, and advantages which both
the Mercedes engineers and I are aware of. If you're designing a new
engine from scratch it's great to add them, but if you're adding a
turbo to an engine that doesn't have them- it will work just fine.
