So from what i gathered for 6mt makes sense to bleed the clutch also because you want all the fluid that will be in the same reservoir to be changed......and for SMG just do the brakes because there is a different reservoir and fluid for the SMG clutch making it not neccessary to get all the brake fluid out.....Correct?

Yes. It's recommended to flush out brake fluid every two years.
