A "trust but verify" policy on these cars really is your best bet because a lot of dealers out there can't even follow their own factory recommendations.
Where does it say the fluid needs to be changed at 22? I see an inspect at 22 not a change. In fact there is no "Change" required at any point for the MT all the services just show inspect and change if required.
