WD-40 is NOT a lubricant.  It's a solvent.  WD-40 doesn't leave a
lubricant behind when it evaporates.

Chain lubricant uses a carrier that also evaporates.  However, it
carries a heavy lubricant down into the parts of the chain before it
evaporates.  The carrier helps it penetrate, and then goes away.

This might be a poor explanation, but is close.  By the way, I use
PreLube 6 on my cables.  It is available at www.championradio.com, under
Miscellaneous on the left web frame for $7.50.
