Does "better" mean that you can't have too high of an oil pressure reading?

Unlike blood pressure - high oil pressure is a good thing. I don't think the oil pump would give enough pressure to do any damage. There are a couple of pressure relief valves which control the oil pressure at the high end, but when these fail, it's usually that they get weak, or stick open and don't allow oil pressure to build. In the unliley event that they were to stick closed, I doubt any damage would be done.
I've sure never heard of too high oil pressure.
