Well,

These copper brake lines are designed for brake fluid and specially made for
them. That's the reason I am not really so much afraid of them...

The "copper" brake lines may not be pure copper.  they may be copper
plated steel, or some alloy of copper that does not work harden.
Someone who has used the "copper" brake lines, probably from the UK,
might be able to clarify this point.
