Another oil question

I have a 2024 GLE 53 AMG. It takes 10 quarts of oil. Does anyone put 229.71 or 229.72 oil in it. It recommends 229.5*.
It's OW-20. So in the operators manual it has those oils recommended but in the supplement it has 229.5* but only under
the 63S nothing under the 53. So I am assuming it's ok to use 229.71/72. They should have made that clearer in the supplement.
