That wire is probably safer than it would be outside the axle. I'm not going to run out and rewire my brakes any time soon. And it is about as likely that they scraped that wire pulling it through at the factory, as having worn through.
Good to know that it can happen, although fairly obvious that if you have a short, it could be inside the axle tube.
As the wires bounce around inside the axle the intermittent short is nearly impossible to trace. This drives the brake controller crazy and gives false errors. If there is one thing I can do while at my residence to prevent problems on the road I will do it.
