Default Dot 5.1

Looking at the pros and cons, I quickly eliminated Dot 5 .
THe proice of 5.1 is basically the same as DOT 3/4 with higher biouling point (270 degrees).

So given a bran new brake system with OEM (Detroit speed master) and OEM KORE3 C6 Brake calipers.. I was leaning toward DOT 5.1

Any downside to this decision?
Can it be used for clutch fluid ?

PS the latest thread i found was from 2016 so I did search..
