Is there a problem with removing the hoses?? No, as long as plugs and caps are used appropriately. But the question is why would you???
I have never had to do such and I travel with my regs, mask, and dive computer in my carry-on. In fact, just got back from a trip. The secret is to NOT tightly coil but place the hoses along the outer edges with 1st and 2nd stages facing inward and cushioned with clothes. For my mask, I roll 2 underwear into the face piece and another wraps the "package".
I carry my laptop inside the carry-on, along with my camera and housing.
The only thing TSA has been interested in is my laptop (which I always take out while going through security). I have never had TSA inspect regs, dive computer, or camera.
