All cables should run vertical or horizontal of any electrical point or run
in the zones of 150mm from corners or ceiling or a depth of more than 50mm
if none of the above then the cable must be protected by a metal EARTH
sheath

I'm not sure how it would like being constantly flexed, all be it tiny
amounts, by the thermally induced movements of the building. If the
cable is free to move in a conduit not so bad but effectively and
rigidly fixed, buried in render?

Thats a non problem. The time you'll get in trouble is when the
rendering gets redone, and someone puts a chisel through it. So its
best to put a cover over it before the render.
