The argument used to be that detergent oil should not be used because the "splash" oiling system would cause to oil to foam and lose it's lubrication properties.That may have been a problem with early versions of detergent oil but I cann't find anybody that has had a problem in the last 20 years.

I use single grade detergent oil.After about a year and a couple thousand miles of use, I opened both the top (head) and bottom (oil pan) and side (valve cover) of my engine for different reasons and found it to be very clean and in good shape.
