I'e normally gotten good service for a couple of years, to three at the most from poly tape. Its strong, not much breakage trouble. As to shorting out, thats more a function of your energizer than the tape itself. I use a Parmark 110v charger, one of their top of the line 110v models and it doesnt have a problem with wet weeds and such within reason.
Will ice build up on it, sure, and the sagging will stretch the wire or tape. Got to go retighten it. If you want perminant, might as well go high tensile and do it right. For temporary fence, it is that, temporary and requires some ongoing upkeep.
I dont like the poly tape, even for horses I use 14 ga wire. Just hang some surveyors tape on it so they can see it. Lots of horse owners use it here, I just dont like it. The wires can break inside the tape, leaving the tape in tact. Almost impossible to locate the short in the wire.
