OSB loses all of its advantages over time. Plywood is much more resilient, which is what's important. "Strength" is almost meaningless simply because everything is engineered to meet spec. You need building materials that will last the test of time and for a house that means it needs to handle elemental abuse. OSB is really soft wood and glue. Pests beeline towards OSB because it breaks down quicker than other materials. It swells like MDF when wet. It's shit.
