My problems are not the abuse complaints.
I had two, some years ago and got some great help from the community! :)

My problems are way too much capcha-challenges during my normal internet usage.

Note that if the IP address was an exit relay or relay it probably ended up in few lists (the IP addresses of all relays are public) and it might not be a good bridge ... because it will be already blocked and nobody would be able to use that bridge.

If you can get a fresh IP address and run a bridge that would be awesome, if not simply keep it as a middle relay.

I challenge you to keep it as an exit, exits are more helpful and more fun to run. Just fight with abuse complaints, it's not that hard and it'll make you feel better :) try keeping it as an exit.
