9-5 Transmission Failure

I contacted Saab today regarding my transmission failure at 90K miles. I explained that I have had the fluid changed every 30K and the dealer has always used synthetic ATF. The Saab representative told me that the AW50 automatic transmission is not designed for synthetic ATF ( something to do with the friction coefficient ) and synthetic ATF will cause "abnormal" wear patterns. Any thoughts..........
