I think a reason why overfilling a piston engine mightn't be as bad as overfilling a wankel engine is that in a piston engine there is a much larger distance between where crank is whipping up oil and the vents which are often both in the head, where as a rotary engine seems to have much smaller volume (timing gear inside of the rotor) where extra oil can be whipped around with blow - by gasses furiously blowing by.
