I’m thinking that hanging still doesn’t stress the fiber but possibly makes it stiff and brittle while a gentle motion caused a small wear but keeps the textile flexible. Any material science people in the house?

    Any strain on the material would cause it to degrade. So your best option is keeping it spread out flat on the floor of a climate-controlled room. If you want to keep it hanging in your home, keeping it away from anything that would bring it into motion is your best option.
