Use a combination of compression-less and normal housing using housing connector.
Had some bike where distance from rim brake caliper to cable stop is so short that the compressionless housing doesn’t allow it to move, putting normal housing there but compressionless from lever to cable stop retain the sharp powerful braking.
I gave up with compressionless housing in any bike with tight housing bends. I found it made my bike steer weird too, the bend to get it into the headtube cable stop was too much and it would split more often than regular housing
