I haven't personally blown a t-clamp, I'm just saying from my experience and all the cars that come into dyno at the shop i used to work at, they leak slightly all the time. Every car we tune, we would pressurize the charge pipes and t clamps have high chance of leaking. On all the FD race cars, we run regular style clamps
Alot of times they dont pop, but the leak slightly. Alot of people dont notice because most people dont actually pressure test their system.
In comparison, worm clamps dont leak as much, and don't damage your hose as much as you would think. Quality hose isnt that weak either.
T bolts can clamp tight, but they tend to clamp in an oval and allow a leak. Worms generally always clamp round.
