Right. Thanks David. This is what I understood but useful to know the
difference. e.g. the type of cable in question VS the WBX green O2 coax
type cable.

That shielding foil is pretty thin. Crimping a terminal to that would be
akin to pulling hair off a small insect.  LOL.

btw. This image shows a section of cable from harness I'm working on. It
shows the type of shielding foil and what might've been corrosion? ~ 76 kb

Wire strands were nearly black in all conductors but in some cases, one
conductor would be clean, one wouldn't.  ~ 122 kb image:
