From what I gather from the Bentley service manual and ISTA/D Rheingold is that if you're not opening up the system (ie. replacing lines, calipers, etc.), you can do the traditional brake bleeding method.

Once you open up the system from a location other than the brake fluid reservoir or the bleeder screws, it is recommended to use the ISTA/D Rheingold to activate the DSC module as part of the brake bleeding process.
Exactly right - well said. I think there are two issues at play in many of these mushy pedal threads related to brake upgrades, etc. The lousy M Performance brake pads, and/or poorly bled brakes. Using a power bleeder for normal caliper/brake line replacement should yield excellent results.
