If steel lines are that bad, why BMW uses it. Mind you, this line that I took out due to rusted connection nut to the end of the brake hose, was in perfect condition along the rest of the line. I had to use dremel grinder to scrape it off. This is after 18 years of salty road exposure. The weakest point seems to the nuts and not the steel line.
