I imagine that might be quite useful if you're bleeding multiple brakes a day. I've never had an issue with seals on the Epic ones, they're only push fit and screwed on. The pressure you're applying isn't that much to require super tight sealing. I've done caliper-up bleeds on Hope brakes just pushing a piece of tubing onto the bleed nipple, no leaks.

I’ve been using the alix kit for years and mostly it is fine. Nevertheless, last year I‘ve bought the og sram kit and it really speeds things up, cause the hoses on syringes are actually sealing, but mainly that the adaptors’ head can be turned, so that you can screw it in the caliper without the odd job of rotating the whole syringe which usually is pretty messy itself.
All in all, if magura and shimano, the alix is allright, for sram I would go for their, or some other, better, kit
