I would strongly disagree with that. Transmission flushes are LARGELY a money grab. Unless your car is shifting erratically, hesitating, jerking or not going into gear it is better to just leave your transmission fluid as is. In fact putting new fluid into an old transmission that is working correctly can actually CAUSE issues.
Unless you have a CVT, which was dying since the day it was born anyway.
And if fresh fluid kills your trans, the friction disks were already toast and being helped along by the crud in the old thin fluid.
