Err they use it because it is compatible with drinking water. I'd not use copper because it is expensive and heavy.
=================
You have two extremes -
One that is strong and won't bend. The bike could break first.
One that is bendable - if you fall on it and it bends, you can bend it back easily.
---------------------
Go for both ... have a weak point or two where it will bend. Bits that bend frequently will eventually break. So carry spares for that bit or have that bit a 'common' part available everywhere (a small bolt for example).
