John, from what I've read there are two reasons for the fiber core. One is more flexibility and the other is to hold oil and release it slowly into the wire strands. The old books say that such rope should be re-lubed from time to time by running it it through a pan of hot oil. Does anybody do that these days? I actually have an old bucket of "exposed gear and wire rope lubricant", but haven't used it on anything yet.
