No mention of how to manage boiling of the fuel in the lines for hot

I thought hot starts was an issue for non-pressurized fuel systems
(carburated).  I don't see how fuel boiling in the cowling area of the
fuel lines is an issue for a tank-mounted fuel pump.  [Other than the
potential for a lengthy cranking, that is.]  Can you elaborate?

Question:  if a return line on an injection system is necessary to avoid hot
starts, why is it no harder to start a hot injected Lyc--neither the Rivera
nor Bendix system has a return line--than an injected Cont, which does have
a return line?  And,  if I remember right,  pressure carbs, which do have
return lines, are worse than either.
