Both hoses are intended to be bare-ended for many reasons.
The black water so that you can insert it into the dump hose and piping for proper rinsing. I can't figure why you would want to connect to that hose.
The fresh water is intended for filling through the gravity fill hole. The time is would take to attach a fitting and connect it would add to the fill time would make other campers waiting in line very unhappy.
In addition, in both cases it is a safety feature to protect the facilities and the unit in case some distracted camper drives away without disconnecting.
In you need to fill the fresh water tank through the city water connection, you have to do it at your campground.
