Thank you for taking the time to explain this, I have learned something today. That does sound like a persistent piece of folk knowledge even if the machines that it pertains to haven't been manufactured in 30+ years. I'll have to check service records but I think I've kept up to date with transmission fluid changes, if not I'm pretty sure the cost to eventually repair or replace would be greater than the value of my ride.

Nah I only use natural oil from the ground. The devil put those dinosaur bones down there to trick us into believing EVIL-ution, so we may as well use them for something GOOD and lube up our cars innards all slick like Jesus intended for us.
Someone on here joked about how if you leave transmission fluid long enough without maintenance, all the sludge and flecks of metal become structurally integral to your transmission's workings? Well my car is like that with motor oil, I change it on schedule but I need all the natural impurities to gum up the works and keeping everything flowing like it should. You wouldn't tell a 95 year old to stop smoking, would you? The stress might kill them and for all we know the cigarettes are what's keeping them alive!
SMH at this cultural appropriation, the frogs can take my ahegao from my cold dead hand (the other one is busy).
A bot would never have useful in-context information like this, thank you for taking the time.
