The stated reason for not changing at all is that it would dislodge some broken off bits and they would get stuck in places, clog passages, get grinded etc. Leading to some breakdown. Perhaps there is a chance of that.
But the way to guarantee transmission breakdown at 150K is to never change fluid.
One has to understand that for BMWNA, "lifetime" means 100K, a period after which they are not liable for anything (at this mileage is past original warranty, past CPO, past any of their extended warranties).
