There are (as far as I can tell) all plastic and metal + plastic versions of that clip on the internet. I suppose the metal backing makes it more rigid, but the failure point is still plastic.

Are there all-metal versions? It looks like the metal cable/cable ends maul the plastic over time. Or is that by design...eat a $15 pair of clips and not a 150 regulator?
