Hybrid strings are a good, suitable way to combine the properties of different strings on one racket. However, it is important not to lose sight of the desired goal and not to get bogged down in testing.
In my consultations I often have cases where a player combines above-average durability with a sensitive cross string and the overall setup only lasts a few hours. In this case, it would make sense to forego durability along the length and get more comfort, so that you can possibly choose a slightly more durable comfort string crosswise and the overall package provides sufficient comfort and lasts longer overall.
Testing hybrids is time-consuming and I recommend determining the main string first. It's best to test 2-3 possible candidates as a full covering, as this way you can feel the properties more clearly. Once you have decided on your favorite string, only test a suitable cross string if necessary.
