Inquiry about the fungi

Hello
dear drs. experts in microbiology
Sterile water is recommended for fungi instead of broth since fungi must be soaked for 30 minutes or longer before transferring to an agar surface ??? is that true ? and why?

I have never read it or do this. Heat shock may be given to the spore forming fungus as aspergillus at 50℃ for15 min to germinate the spores.
