It has better flavour and doesn't come from some seed/grain extraction process which is completely unnatural to the human diet.

It works great to keep your /out/ knives from rusting and isn't terrible on a sharpening stone either. protip: make sure the olive oil you buy has "first cold press" on the label.

Fats are good if you eat about a spoonful a day and raw.
More than that and used while cooking - not so good anymore

Care to explain yourself or are you just trolling?
Unsaturated fats transform to trans fats when heated. Trans fats are as bat as saturated fats, and some say that they are even worse
Every food piramid or daily nutrients intake chart will tell you that you should eat an equvalent of about one or two table spoons of fats.

No.
2 tablespoons of oil = 30ml = 27g = 243 calories
Typical male intake: 2300 calories
Actual recommended portion of fats according to mainstream health authorities: 25% - 35% = 575 - 805 calories = 64 - 90 grams for 2300 calorie diet = 5 - 7 tablespoons of oil equivalent
