Toggle Switches: Open vs. Closed

So I am replacing a toggle switch and want it to last. I was wondering whether open enclosured toggle switches are superior to closed. Someone's gotta have some good info for me. Thanks in advance!
 
The open toggle in my Les Paul has worked perfect for 28yrs. Any good quality switch should be fine. I would recommend switchcraft. Make sure the area is clean, with no buffing compound or dust.
 
Forgot to ask...Why the replacement? Sometimes all they need is cleaned. I usually just pass a piece of 2000-3000 grit sandpaper between the contacts.
