Bill has an excellent point.
I guess my question is, "what is the advantage of flex line"? Easier to
install?
If that's it; and steel is cheaper, lighter, lasts longer, there's no debate
about steel resulting in a mushy pedal, it looks
"period" appropriate, and needs less support, I gotta vote for steel.
