I am pretty serious about maintenance, do my own work, have rebuilt a number of engines, drive motorcycles, ATV, truck tractor. Have never experienced or heard of a brake related problem or failure for not flushing brake fluid. I hang with car guys, who collect and rebuild, they do not flush. I did rotors, drums, pads and shoes, and on my kids car last night. 14 year old car, that has only been topped off and bled and a partial line replaced. Uh, they still work, with that nasty old fluid.
That being said, I am willing to look at a Used Brake Fluid Analysis, or forensic evidence that shows fluid failure. I am not above learning something new, it just seems to be a bit of hype/marketing.
