Yes, banjo have this advantage to fit on very tight spaces.
But they are a pain to bleed, they are real "bubble traps" and for this reason, we always say they should be used only where there there is no room for a tubular fitting (seat seal). Also, the set banjo+banjo bolt+copper washers makes a more expensive fitting and would increase slightly the price of the brake lines.
But it is definitely a solution I want to propose now that I know that the 45° fitting is still a bit too long to fit without grinding the upright a little.
