Since Ate SuperBlue/Type 200 is a DOT4 fluid, it's still recommended to be changed more often than usual.
Negative.
Go to the ATE website.

Did you regularly bleed it?

Sure it may have made a huge difference if it had air bubbles in the system and then you replaced the fluid and then bled the brakes it may have gotten better, basically because the brakes were properly bled.

What "changing" it means is completely flushing the system and using ALL new brake fluid. Not bleeding the system and adding 1/8 of a liter of fresh fluid.
