Brake fluid is hydrophilic which in Greek translates to "water loving." It attracts and absorbs water, and this water causes the corrosion. Brake fluid, without water added, is not corrosive. So yeah, they all recommend bleeding brake systems frequently. At least every two years. Do we really do that? No.
