Maybe you bought different fittings then I had, not sure why you think they can't be used again.
Im talking about the side of the fitting that crimps the hose. For the ptfe hose you have to buy new ferrules once the hose has been installed into the fitting and tightened. And even with anti-sieze the threads on that side start to get a little rough after a full tightening and removal.

The other end of the fitting can be installed and removed onto another connection many times without issue.
