I also remember when gas pumps had a separate hose and nozzle for each grade of gas.

Usually depends on the place around here. Some do, some don't.

In theory, separate hoses mean low octane and high octane don't mix (mid grade is already a mix of the two). In practice, it really doesn't matter. Except for diesel; don't want to mix that with anything else.
