I suspect the answer is they will all twist if you apply enough torque. Not a problem until they leak.

But fittings are all installed with a crimping press... The hose is pushed to stop on the fitting and then the hose and fitting are put in a crimping press... The fitting must be at the right height in the crimping jaws and then pressure is applied to a given PSI... if you don't get to the right PSI or go over the PSI for that hose and fitting... It's not to rated spec...
I have seen high pressure hoses that looked great fail because the wrong Hose/Fitting/crimping PSI were used...
