But it sure acts like one.
I think of it more as a very slow-set glue.
I used ATF, and used the vacuum source to slurp it
up into the cable sheath and all the way through.

Try spraying it in an adding machine, clock, etc. Wait a month

It does goop up. Provides an excellent protective barrier for non-moving
parts. Not so good on moving parts as it collects dust and dirt and goops
up into a oily paste.

in my experience with bicycles, i don't use WD40 for anything except
cleaning stuff off; things that need a lube get a light oil.
WD40 is a Water Dispersant, not a lube. if you don't get it all
off, it becomes a dirt magnet.
