The hoses are laminated with reinforcing fabric. You can see it at the ends where it is cut to length. Sometimes, when a hose balloons, what's happening is the outer layers of the hose separate from the fabric.
The new "space" between the layers has no significant flow, so it cools down just a bit. That might be the only reason it doesn't burst. So the inner layers collapse inward, so if you could look inside the hose, it might be severely restricted.
