I've never tested Ciba's for longevity (haven't actually tested anything that way).

Could be. Henry is one of the nicest people you could ever meet, and absolutely incorruptible in his test methodology. I'm sure his tests are great for comparing one type of print with another. If he says Cibachromes last longer than type R prints, I'm sure it is true. But I don't think they fade at all under most display conditions.
