The advantage of magnet wire is the tiny mass of dielectric. Worse than PVC doesn't matter nearly so much when you have such a small fraction of the amount. Polyurethane and enamels and magnet coatings come in various forms, the problem with teflon is that it is so soft it's prone to cold flow, meaning that pressure can push it out of the way and give you some shorts. Not a good thing by any account. Urethane and polyurethane are much tougher.
