synthetic oil question (not starting anything)

I read in some of the posts that the Synthetic Oils result in more leaks. Is this true on a new bike also, or just after they have 5000mi+ on them? Why is this so? What quality makes this happen that it doesn't happen with conventional oils? Truly hope this doesn't start anything else. Just looking for answers.
