It's both.
I mean obviously it's not going to make you go from cat 5 pack fodder to tearing up P/1/2 races just by hiding your cables lol. But yea, my understanding is that anything with a circular cross section is Bad, with a capital 'B.' I seem to remember from somewhere that hiding cables saves a small but significant number of watts at normal speeds. Like ~5 maybe? Which is definitely not nothing. For many people, that could well equal the gains made through a brutal, 6 week structured training plan.
