The only reason I can think of is maybe some are concerned if there is enough limited slip additive in some of the aftermarket fluids, but as long as you get something designed for clutch-based LSD, then they should have enough additive in it to prevent any issues.
It looks like Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90 will work, though I personally do not feel like messing with adding their Slip Lock additive(how much to add, if I need it at all, etc.) when I can just buy Motul Gear 300 LS and it's already got the additives in it. Same with Red Line Gear Oil, it already has the friction modifier in it.

Pretty sure you dont have to worry about having friction modifier in the fluid because the clutches in the eLSD are sealed off and are lubricated by separate fluid you never really need to touch. So you basically just need some good gear oil in there and that's it.
