Check my thinking here?

In a given vehicle calling for a lower-boiling-point
glycol fluid, one could safely and honorably
do the flush and fill with the higher boiling point

in DOT 5.1?

Missed this earlier...that's ok, certainly. Probably unneeded and no
real benefit much like higher octane gas in engines that don't spec it
but likewise it doesn't do anything bad.
