Well, I am not sure where the person on AK got his info. Perhaps he was thinking of wet tantalums, which have an acid electrolyte and are prone to leaking. These definitely do deteriorate with age
Solid tantalums are typically used in long life military and test equipment where reliability is key. I have some surplus solid tantalums made over 50 years ago, and they test as if they were brand new as to leakage and capacitance tolerance.
