Will changing ATF for first time @ 110K miles affect tranny? 850 1997

Yes, I know there exist a plethora of similar topics, but my question is very specific and has not been succinctly answered. Facts only please, no opinions.

Will the transmission be adversely affected in ANY WAY by changing the fluid for the FIRST TIME EVER at 110K miles?

I know that, generally speaking, if you change ATF for the first time after so many miles, the new fluid will often damage seals, bands, etc. and almost certainly lead to or directly cause tranny problems/failure. If changing the fluid could have negative consequences, I won't change it.

Thanks everyone!
