Yes! The only reason. It certainly isn't reliability.
The same thing I was thinking. I had an '85 F150 and I had the slave cylinder go out,no fun not being able to get it out of gear. I went to replace it and while bleeding it the bleed screw stripped out just after a few times trying to bleed it. I went back to the parts store and got a replacement,the same thing happened to it. I said to heck with those and went to a different parts store,they had a different brand that worked. A few years later the pin holding the line into the master cylinder rusted out and the line blew out,again no clutch. I replaced the master cylinder and line since the ends of the line was rusted too. Low and behold a few more years and the damn slave cylinder went out again. I had that truck about 18 years and had the hydraulic system fail 3 times and that's on top of the clutch going out twice and the transmission once.
