that seems to be a solvable problem, you can add pretty good fail proof (read resistant) valves. And the retraction can be controlled to never let any fuel come back, so even if the hoses catch fire, they would pretty quickly dry out. Combined with good sensors, these could outperform modern stuff in theory. (or atleast I believe so)
