If you work it too much, though, solid core can break inside the insulation.
This. Solid core is fine if it is not going to move at all, but stranded is more reliable.
This x2.
I mostly use solid core (occasionally ribbon). As long as nothing moves around, it's by far the easiest stuff to use. Until I find a decent supplier for 24AWG pre-bonded ribbon that is, which is the best stuff ever if you can get it.
