It's good stuff, very low linoleic, which is the main thing that makes seed oils bad. The question is how cheap can they get it and at what scale. High oleic seed oils have the advantage that they are a drop in solution to an existing industrial process, so they instantly have access to economies of scale.
The other issue Zero Acre will run into is that with such low linoleic, the taste of fried food becomes worse, and I suspect this can be recuperated with a high saturated fat source, for which palm kernel or coconut are the two standout choices. ZeroAcre + 30% coconut or palm kernel is analogous to approach I want to take and I think that could work.
All of these seem like they should be able to supplant avocado and olive oil for home cooking in applications with heat. I will still use lots of butter, ghee, tallow, but all those things will always cost more.
