We should rinse after chlorine and salt water exposure because when it dries it leaves an abrasive film.

Yes agree, but what I'd like to know is, how common is it for pitting to occur in 904L with "normal" usage where little to no time is spent in a pool or the sea and the watched is serviced regularly, lets say every 10 years?
Or is it rare enough that we shouldn't be worried about unless we're in the pool or in the sea on a regular basis and just really abusing our watches by not cleaning them periodically?
