I read somewhere that too much oil makes your fuel too thick and it leans out your mixture a little. But I doubt it would make a difference unless you're within a gnat's ass of being too lean already. On a stock ski I would say you are fine. Right now I am breaking in my new motor on SBT Break-in oil, and their recommended mixture is 30:1 (but that is for the first tank only!).
I used to run my motocross bikes at 100:1 with synthetic premix. I would recommend your friend run 40 or 50 to one but I don't think he is hurting anything by running 32:1.
He is dumping 25% more premix into the environment. Maybe try that angle to convince him. : -)

40:1
it doesnt lean out the mixture as much as you think. even if it does, its just an 1/16 turn of the adjustors to compensate.
if youre running the snot out of your engine, better more lube than less (to a point.... that point, for me, is 40:1).
