Default Braided Stainless Fuel Line Problems

Has anyone encountered problems with stainless braided fuel lines? I seem to be constantly changing sections due to leaks, then have to go through the whole XRP or Russel fitting issue, which is not easy. I have been told that they are great for hyd fluids and oils, but fuel deteriorates them over time. I have them running from the filters under the footbox area and all around the engine bay. While they look nice, I'm getting pretty tired of this, let alone my adversion to fires!
