What I think happens is, tight bends while routing the cable causes the inner driven cable to rub harder against its polyethylene liner. Then at some point in the future, the liner wears through in spots. At that point, grease or oil will not help because its the worn-through areas that are causing the jerking of the perfectly good inner cable.
