Another factor, how long do you intend to keep the car? Lots of folks buy a car every three or 4 years so brake bleeding isn't important to them. If they intend to keep the car for 10 years it starts being very important just like radiator flushes.

As a little side note, two years ago when I bought my SC I spent a couple months taking care of little problems and brake fluid flushing was one of them that I didn't quite get around to yet. I took the car to Willow Springs (SOW) and 15 minutes into the first 20 minute session my pedal went to the floor and I had to throw it sideways to keep from going to a "bad place". Boiled the fluid big time.
Scared the you-know-what out of me but the only damage to the car was brown dirt everywhere. After the brakes cooled down enough to get my pedal back I limped into town and bought a turkey baster, new brake fluid, and some tubing.
Laying down under a car in 100 degree heat saying "pump it up, hold it...." wasn't my idea of fun.
Car was fine for the rest of the sessions after I got clean fluid in there.
mental note to self, next time make sure you get around to it.
