The claim that it is not necessary with "modern" oils is disproven by the length of time that the new engine lubricating oil remains clean after use of flushing oil.
It's a case of the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Many people will theorise without having the practical experience. So Julien I'd suggest that you give it a try, particularly in your diesel, then make up your own mind.

I think that advice from someone that is documented not bother to do oil changes as per the service intervals, as well as other critical maintenance, rather invalid.
Your oil would remain cleaner if you chose to adhere to the maintenance schedule (mine does with a KV6).
