Re: sd bare wire
The bare wire in pickup output cable is the permanent connection to ground. Hence, there is no advantage to insulating it against shorting out.
Any other exposed wire strands that touch the bare ground wire will also be connected to ground.

Re: sd bare wire
It does touch other components. Its soldered to the baseplate at one end and the ground at the other. And like a lot of ground components, its the job of the solderer to make sure nothing that shouldn't be grounded has an opportunity to touch a ground.
Its bare nature is also a way of telling the wire that is always grounded on every wiring scheme.
