You should try the flushes first before you spend 3k on a new tranny. There are several people on yotatech that have done this and it works out for them. Even if you have to flush the tranny 3x it is worth a shot. I think the dealer is full of crap when they say "every single one". There may always be an exception to the rule. You can do it with 2 people in a garage too pretty easy including changing the wire filter.
