In Oil Springs, can you build a metropolis when the used-oil track is at 4?

One poster works it out from the track's limit, and nothing disagrees.

No. A metropolis needs two oil, and the track can't go past 5, so with the track at 4 only one oil can be used that turn. That one oil can be converted to another resource or sequestered, but it is not enough for a metropolis.
