Right. That's my point. They are going to change the oil now at 7500 miles but aren't going to reset the oil change CBS. So, at 10K miles this thing is going to start nagging me to change the oil. I won't be changing it again for another 7500 to 10K miles since I just changed it at 7500K miles. So, starting at 10K miles it's going to start nagging me to change the oil and won't stop until it's reset which won't be until at least 15500K miles.

What am I missing?
