Dunno. If I had the USN's budget--or the amount of metal in their seawater systems--I might not worry about flushing either.

When I flush, it will be before leaving the boat for any length of time--not so obsessive that I'll worry about it at anchor. If it keeps one more corrosive element away from engine metal, it's worth the trivial amount of time it takes to flush. For me, it's more about "what harm can it do?" (assuming I have aluminum anodes).
