Someone asked the other day, and I just happened to have a sample of a fuel line hose I cut off recently that had both the correct flat-style FI hose clamp on one end, and the incorrect serrated-style hose clamp on the other. I dont know how long these clamps were installed (PO not me) but this is the resultant carnage...

What your missing is gas leaks caused by the hose getting loose as the hose squeezes and cuts its way through the serrated hose clamp. The flat OEM clamp although deforms the rubber hose lets no materal pass through it thus way less chance of gas leak or fire.
