Bad info on the internet

Asked a question on google and what came up was ridiculous. The guy said hydraulic hoses should changed in pairs because of undo wear and tear. That just seems dumb. One hose can get a leak and the other hose is perfectly fine. It also said on a quick attach backhoe you shouldn't couple the hoses together when you take it off because of cross mixing of fluids. How do get cross mixing from the same fluid?? Too bad there wasn't a way video's or information on the net had to be verified before it gets used as the Google answer.

Just about every time i blew a hose on my backhoe . Would get 2 hoses made , to have one on hand when the other one let go . Ended up with a shed full of spare hoses .
