That's interesting.

The oft-claimed reason for changing transmission fluid is because of improved lubricity, ie it will prevent wear. Taking all those particles out. Improving sliding and rolling friction between moving parts. In that sense, the engine oil article is completely applicable.

Agree that it doesn't cover the subject of the additive package in the transmission fluid, and the friction modifiers.
