The airfields did NOT have two sets of fuel bowsers

Of course they did. They had more than two sets when Jets came along too.
The Germans had even more. They used LOX and LNOX. You don't want to mix those two up.
Fortunately they had different nozzles and you would have to be pretty dense to force it past the filler plate.
That is why aircraft are required to be correctly placarded at all fill points. It is part of the airworthiness.
