Do you folks still use cable lacing (cord) for deep space missions?

  You can see cabling with lacing in many images, for example: Curiousity outside: https://mars.nasa.gov/raw_images/15126/?site=msl https://mars.nasa.gov/raw_images/15126/?site=msl Perseverance interal: https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/images/pia23312-in-the-belly-of-the-mars-2020-beast/ https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/images/pia23312-in-the-belly-of-the...

    Interesting. These however appear to be tie-downs of (PU-cast?) cable assemblies rather than running lacing. See e.g. p35 and on in https://standards.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/standards/NASA/A/4/nasa-std-87394a_w_change_4_0.pdf https://standards.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/standards/NAS...
