Almost all cars I buy and plan on keeping get new brake lines (at the least new flex lines) and all cylinders either replaced or rebuilt. Then I flush the brake fluid every 3 years or so. I bought a power bleeder some time ago and it's a great tool to own. Vented systems get flushed more frequently if the fluid gets visibly dirty.
I agree that someone should come up with a diaphragm assembly for the early brake systems, manual or T/V.
From time to time I've been guilty of some driving no-no's, and who hasn't? But, I make an honest effort.
