Synthetic Auto Trans Fluid, Owner's Manual Says NO!

So which of you engineers or mechanics can explain why so many here recommend switching to Synthetic Auto Trans fluid when the Owner's Manual for my (new) '98 9000CSE clearly says in parentheses ' DO NOT USE SYNTHETIC FLUID'? If synthetic had the same characteristics then SAAB would not have made this statement. Seems to me SAAB is going to make the most accurate recommendation for long term care of the car they designed. But, I'm willing to consider other educated points of view.
