Default [IBC] educate me !!

Hi all.

Downloaded the fertilizer spreadsheet and poured over it with interest.
I fully understand this is not a complete list of fertilizer manufacturers,
and that Dyna-Gro isn't likely to list manufacturers or products that
exceed their own specs.
However, the data it contains seems to suggest that Dyna-Gro products are
better than others because (these are my uneducated assumptions) ......
The Nitrogen included in their products does not come from Urea.
As an uneducated fertilizer user I'm assuming this is a good thing, however,
I have no idea why.
All the elements they list from Phosphorus to Zinc are at measurable
amounts, where others listed are not as complete.
I understand the importance of trace elements. I watched a JPN slowly turn
yellow when I used a fert that did not include them, then back to green when
I used a fert that did. They're obviously important, but do plants really
need obscure amounts of Boron, Chlorine, Cobalt and Moly ?

Are there any case studies that show these elements are actually beneficial
?

Thanks to my more educated friends.
