It can also depend on the ABS system on the car. For example, on cars with Teves Mk60 ABS you bleed the wheel closest to the master cylinder first. Why? That I don't know, but that's what the service manual says.
A too long hose might get pinched, not letting fluid return to the master and keeping the brake stuck on.
The service manual says to do the brake fluid every year on the W126. Later cars are every two years, probably due to improvements in the rubber lines so as to let less moisture in.
