No disagreement here at all. What I was saying was that the arguement as to whether there was 'mixed' fluid in there or not was moot... it was past it's service life and should be changed.
I am fully aware of the problems associated with using non-compatible fluid, such as gelling, which you mentioned, and attacking the cooling system components, which you did not.
