Of course they will disagree with me, fine, I'll see them in court. Any judge seeing the photos of the shredded cable, and other photos, worth his salt, will agree with me.
Good luck with that. There's almost ZERO probability that a stranded cable like that would fail by all strands breaking at once.

Assuming it didn't break loose at the swaged end, most likely, the cables were improperly tensioned, or misaligned on a pulley, and over time each strand broke until failure. And that would be on you.
