The point can be argued forever, if it was mine and I wanted fluid, I would change the tube. I know nothing about pulling. One point not brought up with one you are using for farming, is that you want the weight and the power balanced. If you are pulling a plow or some other power using implement, you want the tires to begin slipping at the time the engine is at max rated rpm, just before or at the same time you begin to lose power -- I am NOT saying this applies to pulling, only pulling a tillage implement. My Dad's H had one set of weights and fluid in the tires. When pulling a plow, that is the way it worked. I have driven other tractors that were set up the same way. I have also driven those that were under-weighted, meaning that there was far too much slippage.
