Don’t loosen the pinch bolt. Twist it with your fingers in the direction of the original twist. The wires will eventually settle as close as they can to their original positions. Add super glue, steel putty, or cable crimp.

Many thanks. Steel putty sounds like a good excuse t0 buy yet another kind of mystery gloop. But maybe I'd regret it.

Isn't a new inner going to be cheaper than buying steel putty!?

I wouldn't want to bother with a frayed cable that close to the pinch bolt. New inner cable + end crimp should cost less than a coffee in London.
