I have honestly not noticed anything. The brake feels great and not really any different from the front, which is a straight shot.

I dont feel like this introduces significant friction or housing wear - the bike is now 2.5 years old and I havent changed the brake housing.

So while I wouldnt ever say this is advisable, in practice, its totally fine. One option you might want to consider is moving the cable exit further toward the BB.
