Why under the car, its harder, more likely to get damaged and running under the sill trims is the sortest and easest route with no down side?

I don't agree, the line is one piece with the treminations in the boot and engine bay so the risks are at thoses ends - the lines especially the braided lines are Very tough.

Just avoid push fittings which can fail if not used correctly and you are good. Theres a much higher risk from running under the car and you are making it hard on yourself. I think you are over thinking it.

also under the car the line has to stand up to the elements and road debris, i had the same concern with fire but once i did the install its very safe inside the car imo. the line is very hard and doesnt chaff against anything to puncture it
