Support it? It's commonly known that stranded is used for short runs & patches made
so because it flexes easier and resists metal fatigue of bending without breaking.
Go open a wall in your house & pull out all the cables. Everything from CAT3 phone
line, to RG6 CATV, to Romex will be solid conductor.

Do you have any links to support this, pls?
I'm very interested in this subject, as I work with different types of
cables on a daily basis.

Solid CAT5 cable supports longer length runs and works best in fixed
wiring configurations like office buildings. Stranded CAT5 cable, on
the other hand, is more pliable and better suited for
shorter-distance, movable cabling such as on-the-fly patch cabling.
