At our company we only use ST connectors for our fibre patch panels.
Those connectors are very robust, but need considerably more space. I have never had an ST connector break, but with LC connectors, especially when you regularly unplug them, they easily break. Broken latches are common, but I also had some connectors literally fly apart after unplugging.
Also, since ST connectors are singulated for each fibre, it is way easier to fix accidental RX/TX swaps. On the other hand this can of course be bad for field installation when you do not have immediate feedback for proper connection.
