I don't have an authoritative source, but I note that if protected
from air (oxygen) omega-3 oils keep for years (e.g. in pills).
I also note that unsaturated oils such as olive keep in a glass jar
in a frig for at least half a year without detectable flavour
change; again, in the original sealed bottle, they keep for years.
So, if you keep your flax seed tightly wrapped in a plastic bag,
it should have no detectable loss for a lot longer than 2 days in a
frig.

That is not how I hear it from fine food "experts".
Good olive need to be protected from
the light. It needs to be in either a dark glass bottle
or better yet a metal can. Moreover, olive oil
is an exception of sorts as it can contain
considerable amounts of polyphenol compounds that act
as preservatives.

Provided the flax seed is raw, I think you are right.
But then again, I am not an authoritative source either.
