Importance of flushing coolant regularly?

While my car was in shop for repair by ABJ Foreign Autos, I asked for a coolant flush 'while it is there'. To my suprise, Al told me it's a waste of money according to his experience. This is totally contrary from what I've heard all the time. But Al has been driving Saab's since 1959, and his shop has more than 20 years experience working on Saab's. So I figure it's safe to believe him. Now here comes my question, despite the theories that coolant can break down and loose its anti-rust function, did anyone really have problems caused by old coolant? I am really curious.
btw my car is a 1996 CSE 9000 with 120k
