I have been using Motul 600 in my previous track cars but for the RS I used Castrol SRF. I always gagged at the price until I realized that it is packaged in 1L containers v. 500ml for the Motul. The price delta was not nearly what I thought it was. Regardless, the SRF has proven to be very reliable and effective, certainly better than the Motul in my experience.
I bleed after every event and flush once a year. I usually have some air bubbles when I bleed but could not imagine not bleeding after every event just to inspect the brakes in general.

no matter what fluid i used, after 6 days, the pedal feels softer. not soft, but softer. my logic is why play with luck. i always remove tires when i wash the car and i like the car on jack stands when i wash it so my back wont hurt, since it's there, i just add 20 min to the routine and flush the fluid out. YMMV.
i know some real fast shoes who would drive motul 600 all year, 40 days, and NOT bleed. he's still alive and still fast... so i guess that's ok.
