You might get the backhoe, but the cylnders and valves are harder to use

I've always kinda avoided pneumatics, but I'm curious -- how are the new
ones more difficult?

I do not know what austin was pointing to, but the old cylinders had a "2x2
brick" stuck on its end and can therefor be attached to normal bricks. The
new cylinders is in the "studless-style" and has this "brick" in the bottom
removed.
There are still the tubes for connection it with axel or technic pins.
