I've also had problems with PLA prints delaminating and becoming brittle over time, especially if it's being flexed or exposed to sunlight. Some PLA's are worse than others with this, though.

If you're willing to get into annealing, I've had good service from annealed HTPLA in high temperature/humidity and even overpressure environments. I'm three years into a build that gets multiple hours of use in such conditions a week and it's held up fine. There have been other problems, but nothing related to bad behaviour out of the HTPLA.
