Let's say you're at a point where you need to add a quart of oil.
You've decided you would like to finish this oil change interval at
a lighter weight (eg you put in AeroShell W100, SAE-50, and now it's
freaking cold). Can you add a quart of a (substantially?) lighter
weight oil (presumably in the same 'series')?

Absolutely. All aviation oils are compatible, and have to be to meet the
appropriate spec's. Otherwise, you'd be SOL if you needed to add a quart of
oil and the FBO on the airport you stopped at didn't carry *your*
brand/weight of oil.
