Why not, if it is better? After all the values are being considered for 
re-organisation? I don't understand the reluctance particularly with the 
present low usage of some 400 items?

I too am not comfortable with 'substance'  ... transports, carries, 
transmits, bears are possibilities... but I'm still thinking about it. I 
think 'bears' is best at the moment as that fits the 'substance=cables' 
which the others are not so well suited.
