Not at all, just following Mike Miller's "old school" maintenance schedule.
After having my E36M3 radiator neck break at <30K miles while on track (back in the day), I have zero desire to repeat that experience.
You, however, do you!

That's a good one as well - very few folks notice the gradual degradation in strut performance, and assume they last "forever" or until they start leaking.
In reality, struts are all but gone smelling daisies north of 50-60K miles.
They don't need to be leaking to be dead!
YMMV,
