Honestly - I think you have hit the issue right on the head - Replace. If your changing your fluid every 2 years - I don't think it will ever be an issue. When I was in college and a little later my wife and I had a 1985 Vanagon camper. Everyone we knew who had one complained about the cooling system leaking left and right and the heads getting eaten by the GM Dex - cool coolant. I drove that van up to 220K - bought it used - with no cooling issues thanks to annual changes of coolant and keeping it under 65 MPH. It was a blast. But moral of long winded story - change the coolant. No such thing as lifetime fluids.
