I didn't want that to sound like a conspirasy theory and reading it again it does. It's just that they are a one size fits all recommendation, and they are conservative at that. If you know how you drive and pay attention to your fluids you should be able to move those recommendations around. That may mean shortening those recommended time frames as well, say if you bag the s**t out of your car regularly.

It can't hurt anything to follow the intervals if you are using your vehicle normally.
