I drained my transmission fluid and found this , either I still have much to learn or is this not normal . it has over 200k miles and hasn’t been rebuilt . Sign of a blown transmission?

I just drained a transmission and the fluid was grey like this. Upon some research I guess it's quite common; it happens when gear oil absorbs moisture. There could be a leak letting moisture in, but more likely, it's just too old. Doing another change in the near future might be good peace of mind to know you got the rest of the old fluid out.
