These cars have soft feeling pedals, I went down that road, I think the master cylinder is too small in diameter and feeding brake lines that are also too small, both should be a little big larger. I added SS lines and I do not think it made much, if any, difference at all.
I think that the bores of the rigid lines attached to the frame are smaller than the bores of the flexible lines going from the frame to the brake cylinders and that causes problems.
You are probably right, and I'm too lazy to change mine again anyway as long as they continue working. ( and they do )
