No need to oil a brand new cable, if anything it's better without it as it will be totally free of any resistant dirt, oil, etc.
Well, I'd certainly still oil it regardless as friction would set in quicker if it's not, using your thought darrsi, if you put a new chain and sprocket set on, would you not oil it as it's new?

Totally different, that's metal on metal.
Cables have a nylon or teflon sleeve covering them, so from new they should be totally fine, adding oil will only encourage dirt to stick.
Over time dirt will inevitably build up, then it's time to get the oil out.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
