Neutral is not insulated, see picture.

Pulling a bare neutral in a service conduit is on my bucket list.

And where would one get, say, 2/0 bare conductor.

Make it out of a 2/0 insulated conductor.

Oh, I know it's made. Just not gonna get it from the supply house on a short notice. By the way, I have ordered odd ball stuff from those guys in the past.

Maybe a POCO or contractor that builds lines for POCO's? They tend to use bare conductors as well as larger sizes of bare conductors more often than most the inside wiring guys do. Yes a lot of them have steel reinforcement strand in them, but they have non reinforced conductors on shorter length reels for making up certain things that aren't longer free span conductors.
