You are taking your single example and claiming it is indicative of a much larger population of transmissions. That is not sound logic.

You used a non-recommended fluid and had no problems. Great. Congratulations. But statistically, others would be better served by using recommended fluids. There are lots of trusted statistics and professional experiences related to increased rates of ZF failures after using incorrect fluids. Those statistics have no relation to an individual's personal preferences.
