They are sturdy beasts. 3 mm of glass-reinforced plastic takes quite a destructive force to come apart. I'd be a lot more worried about the rest of the system at that point. E.g., if you put that much strain on a PCB, it may develop microfractures. It'll only be the sub-board in this case, but still. Oh, if you look carefully at the pictures, you'll see that my 1060s are all spotty on the contacts. This is probably less an effect of material aging but more the dirt in the air taking to the metal. These critters must have been sitting in my drawer for about 8 years.
