That's not a change. Honda specifies that only for people who wish to
exchange much of their fluid for some reason. They specify NO flush,
but rather the drain/fill/drive/ threepeat cycle.

When the service schedule says "change transmission oil," it means pull
the plug, drain all you can, and fill back up. Period.
