If it does, it would be a bad example. There is evidently a problem here; new fluid may help for a while or a long time, the transmission update may help, but why would any of this suggest that changing the fluid caused a problem? There are enough good examples where fluid changes do cause problems, we don't need to confuse the issue with cases where the fluid change doesn't represent the cause.
