That can be true. Remember, motor wires are comprised of multiple strands of wires, each with that coating. If the varnish is not removed from every one of them, the motor will run very poorly or not at all. So, even though the strands on the outside wires look good, the inner strands can still be coated. Not only is running a motor in this condition bad for the motor, but it also can draw HUGE amounts of current from the ESC and can kill it.
