Is it important to change transmission filter? 200 1991

I have had good success in flushing the 240's transmission about every 16 months on average and also using synthetic fluid. I use synthetic and flush this often because we live in the mountains so it is probably harder on the transmission. The fluid does come out dirty but not black or burned smelling.

My question is about the transmission filter. I have heard that the filter does not even filter but is more of a strainer. So is it necessary to change it at all. There are different theories on this maintenance item. Any advice?

Thanks
