This is sooo not a thing
You will have to re-educate some of the manufacturers in that case, I've purchased numerous bulbs that state that on the packaging.

Some battery manufacturers say the same thing, I mix batteries too #rocknroll
Seriously if someone can come up with a good reason why two LED bulbs of the same voltage and wattage can't be on the same circuit change my mind...

This is sooo not a thing. It reminds me of the landlord I had in York once who told me the bulbs in a light fitting were blowing because they were upside down 😂 He wasn't an evil landlord, he was a lovely chap, he was just a bit dim. Bless him.
I think @TW might be right and it could be heat related. I have never had good experiences with halogen or 12v spots so I would be replacing with LEDs and 240v where possible (I don't like transformers either).

If you're happy to spend more and want better, Philips.

I hadn't bought LAP bulbs before (LAP is their own brand I think) but I've just fitted a five pack of their G9 LEDs and I'm happy. Three year warranty too.
