I have a Crosstrek now configured the same and in latter years with not

They haven't read the part about a quarter turn after the seal touches
at the factory. I've gotten a collection of those end cap things over
the years and generally have one that fits. If not I fall back on the
strap wrench.

I had the dealer put on a filter I could not get off in the limited
space under my Forester when I went to change the oil. I made the
dealer take it off and replace it with my filter. I had been screwed on
a 60,000 mile service where I had changed the oil a couple of months
before I went in and did not realize that they had done an unnecessary
engine flush.
Surprising the dealer would install a part you supplied.

The usual party line why they won't do it is that the dealership
agreement prohibits installing anything but factory/OEM parts due to
liability and fit/function issues...the real reason being they don't
make any money on the part- just on the labor to install it.

OTOH, I can't imagine going into a nice restaurant and saying "here,
please cook and serve me this nice sirloin steak I bought in the
supermarket across the street" ;-)

On a business trip in Kentucky, we were repeatedly steered to the best restaurant in town. It was a dry county. We ate there and the restaurant was good

The owner told us about a gas station across the Kentucky line in Virginia that would sell us wine and venison. He told us to return with the venison and he would cook it

He did not tell us the restaurant was closed the next day so we had the place to ourselves

We ordered vegetables, sides and desserts off the menu, but he cooked the venison

It was very good

at the end, when we asked for the bill, he refused to charge us

We left a nice hefty tip

Try Kentucky next time

Although some of these theories have been deduced from a prior theoretical framework, none was the result of empirical testing or exploratory data-gathering.
