Interconnect wire question

I know this has been discussed before but am looking for any new thoughts. I've noticed that many interconnect designs, even the high dollar ones use a more expensive wire like silver for the signal wire and use copper as the return wire. Is there any reason for this besides keeping the cost down? Is there a marked improvement in using "better" wire for both runs?

I'm thinking of building an interconnect using Chris Venhaus diy silver interconnect design except using 26gauge Neotech silver/gold alloy wire for the signal run and 24gauge Neotech copper wire as the return.
