the riveted hook pins at the end of the clutch cable tend to be a weak point especially under repeated high stress from a heavier pressure plate or sticking release bearing (too much grease & dirt on collar) or a worn sticking cable.
i strengthened mine with a nut & bolt at the gearbox end:

if the rivet snapped off, yea you could slip a nut bolt on the hole. I took mine out to drill & tap the small hole so i can fit a larger m6 bolt (better to use a thicker bolt than a thin bolt that could snap again).
