i'm sure there's more to it than this but:
better pedal feel - good
need to replace more often i think - bad
sometimes don't fit perfect - bad
some people can't tell differnece (probably cause they ain't braking hard enuough emoji ) - neutral?

dude you never have to replace SS brake lines again. The reason you replace your brake lines is because the rubber starts to deteriote after oh say 5+ years. This makes the pedal feel mushy. SS lines don't flex for shit, I installed SS brake lines on Kory's RS and they fit perfectly. So does that answer your questions?

yes you do!
more often than you would a stock line. Teflon ages quicker than rubber. ss lines were originally designed for race cars, since they change their lines like every onther year anyways. And you can't tell their condition without tearing them apart. Plus, a lot of the lines available are cheaply produced and can break (making your car unable to brake emoji )
