Ahhh! The hidden costs of owning a vehicle. Who hasn't encountered the mindlessness of present day manufacturing? Don't lament about it. Repair the brake system safely, legally, properly. For instance, if there's access to cut out the bad section, double flare the end of the section that remains in the vehicle and use an inverted flare union to join the lines. Otherwise, take the vehicle to a licensed shop who can.
