Now that I rethink of it, it seems very illogical, but I don't know...

As young snakes it may true. They have a very frail form, especially as you get closer to their tails. They don't have the structure of our more heavy bodied snakes so they should be handled with a bit more of a gentle hand.
Otherwise those people are talking about old stories that just aren't true anymore.
