Quoted from balzofsteel:I think its an aerospace thing. Nuts and bolts have a shelf life so rolls of solder must also.
Yes. And it's great that they buy solder with expiration dates and actually abide by them! They offload their expired solder to the surplus electronics guys, and then I snag it up for cheap! Last time I bought solder I picked up a case of high-quality 63/37 solder at $5 per pound! Shared the bounty will my fellow local arcade and pinball enthusiasts.
Quoted from fordtudoor:I haven't read all the postings on this topic. I imagine they are quite interesting. But since I have been soldering on pins for 30+ years with the same complement of equipment I'm not about to change so why read all the comments. ....
I'm sure your post was fascinating, but I couldn't be bothered to read past the first two lines.... 
Just joking!
