The problem is both hand brake cables are individual.
So with the use they get old and they start to elongate; if you have luck both elongate at the same rate and mantain even.
But sooner or later you get one cable longer than the other and there is no way to compensate or adjust that.
More if you fit a new cable; that one will no match with the old "elongated" cable of the other side. If you change one cable, then you have to change both.
(I think peugeot fit two wires for not loosing the hand brake in case of a cable break; you will always have hand brake operative at least in one tire with the downside that you cannot compensate when they get dispair)
