Back in the days of grease made in the US.
I do have a tube of Super Lube 21030. I was told it was too thin though.

This...
Unless you pack it untill it cant move anymore.
Does it have moly in it? I think sliding gears need moly grease.
I think thin is better... More liquidy to actually get on the gears
That's my thinking on using white lithium. I took apart a reduction box at the asphalt plant once that had bearings gone just because someone had packed it with real thick grease that got flung to the outside of the case and stayed there. The gears and bearings in the center that were actually moving were completely dry.

I think the expectation on grease in a gearbox is to get hot enough to liquefy so it actually get on the gears. But i also think a gear turning at 10k is not having anything sticking to it no matter how liquidy it is.
If it's turning that fast it should be oil bath

I dont know how fast a trimmer spins, but its fast. Funny thing is an angle grinder uses grease in the gearbox also.
