Horse quality hay theories are due to the fact that many horses today are not nearly as hardy as they were 40, 50 yrs ago because the majority of horses now are pleasure animals and show horses. Some high dollar show horses have such delicate digestive systems, they colic if you look at them crossways. (JMO)
While none of my horses are show horses, I did have all of my horses colic at one time because of hay. Vet came out, treated them ($$$$) and we started looking for the cause. Vet looked at the hay and it had singletary pea in it which is toxic to horses. I didn't know that at the time. So good quality hay is important even if you don't have show horses with fragile digestive systems.
I don't coddle my horses, but obviously prefer good quality hay to avoid problems like what I mentioned above.
I thank God that I have a wonderful husband who works very hard to help produce good quality hay for my horses.
