                I believe you have the correct handle on that.

Regular brake line is steel and easy to work

Nickel Copper is next grade up, more expensive and easy to work

Stainless is top dollar but it requires different fittings and requires =
a different set of skills to work the material correctly

=20

Classic Tube I believe has stainless line pre made or they have bulk =
sets with line and fittings.  You would have to check with them about =
your setup for pre made.

=20

I have regular steel lines with silicone brake fluid.  I installed them =
about 30 years ago with no problems.  Mostly it depends on what you want =
and what gives you peace of mind that you have the correct lines for =
your purpose.
