I thought the exact same thing -- which is why it's still the way it is. I think I'd be okay with running SS tubing as long as it was inside the frame rails for protection -- and then I'd make sure it was braided flex (I prefer PTFE) from there where it was going to be anywhere it could get damaged from a crash.... so maybe as soon as it left the protection of the frame rail and headed for the engine bay..... Only thing I wouldn't do is to run it near the suspension which is likely to suffer damage in a crash or tire blowout etc.
