If in fact the tech actually meant unbolt the wheels, spin them 180* and mount them back up, it makes no sense and it's a waste of time. When you go around a corner, the outside wheels will cover more distance and no longer be flipped 180* and eventually they will all line up to the way they were before you flipped them (even if for only a short distance).

As you stated, changing the diff fluid is a band-aid. If it's whining then it already has an issue unless they have an additive that will help.

I think you have conductor and engineer mixed up on that one.
