Also, I e-mailed ZF and this is their response:

In operating conditions with high temperatures and loads, or with unknown vehicle use in the past, it can make sense to change the transmission oil at shorter intervals."

That's interesting about ZF, because there are a number of threads about ZF recommending a change. I still don't know what lifetime fluid means exactly. The fluid properties may be fine, but it gets filled with crap.
