Default Non-Motive Vacuum Brake Bleed

Seems by far the most popular option in this forum is to bleed with a Motive bleeder.

I've been using a Capri Vacuum Bleeder-- seems to be working well, but wanted to see if there was any specific reason why people choose Motive over a standard bleeder?

Lastly -- I bled the brakes with a new bottle of Castrol SRF. But afterward, I realized there was a pinprick in the bottom of the bottle, and was leaking.

So I assume it's been like this for months, and moisture has gotten into the fluid. I should re-bleed the entire system, right?
