7K on whats essentially a automatic transmission is way overkill.
On units that are service life speced for fluid changes its assumed the pan is coming off the converter is getting drained so essentially a dry transmission, then the fluid is pumped by volume through the return tube into the transmission often by installing a T in the return line at the cooler or trans. Then capping the unneeded fitting once filled.
Just guessing form other funky automatics I've heard of and seen lately.
I'd go to the dealer and see if you can talk to a mechanic on the side....
See what they are doing.
