Interestingly, the component in grease that does the lubeicating is oil. The 'grease' is jut a thicker carrier to hold it where you put it 'better.' So, I don't think the question is one of better lubrication, so long as your grease is as new in lube technology as your oil is. Rather, I think it is one of whether the lube stays put better with a thicker carrier (grease) or a thinner one (oil).
