I can't get over how funny it is that a guy that is a real donkey about correcting people (even when they're right) doesn't know this basic fact about derailleur cables v. brake cables. Knowledge>trying to guess at an answer based on a catalog.
No excuses either, Sydney; I've seen you shoot people down when they try to claim an honest mistake.
On a somewhat related note, anyone ever tried the old scotch tape just aft of the cable head trick for Suntour index shifters?
