Not sure I agree but don't have a better answer. Damn near burned down my 70 years ago with a piece of Gates hose about 3" long from the filter to the carb which was barely a year old. It cracked and broke right after start up. I "ain't impressed" with Gates hose. I sold car / truck parts and heavy hardware for some 15 years or more.
There is NO doubt that EFI hose is far superior.........and far more expensive
