Default Multi-strand VS Solid Copper wire

Other than flexibility and ease of routing the wire--is there any
practical advantage for using multi-strand copper wire in a 12V DC
application over insulated solid copper wire? Application is supplying
power to a 12V 6 Amp water pump.

Thanks

the flexibility might help it survive vibration, but that's just another
aspect of flexibility, so the short answer is "no"
