I know it shouldn't, but it does.
I like to look at the gauge and see good, steady oil pressure all the time, hot or cold, idle or WOT.

What you want makes no sense. Lower rpm means less pump revs, less flow and so less pressure. Then theres the whole less stress on engine requiring less oil pressure. You can't have 60psi at all times, nor should you want it.
