Transmission fluid at high miles thats never been changes, yes, it could actually do more harm than good. But at regular intervals, it is very beneficial.

Power steering is good to change every 60k or so. Fluid breaks down, sludges a little, and can cause leaks at seals.

Brake fluid, 2 years or 30k miles... the fluid is hygroscopic... it absorbs moisture. Its a good idea to change regularly..
i don't think my Lexus Owner's Manual says anything about changing those things.
