Submersible fuel lines?

Wondering if these things are just a gimmick or do they really do what they say they are made for?

on most fuel pumps, there a section of hose that sits in the tank that connects the pump itself to the fuel pump housing. and i have seen that hose expand, and get all slimy from sitting in a fuel tank.
