OSB is actually more stable than MDF

It does not creep, the reason MDF creeps because the resins used to bind the saw dust remain in a viscous state. OSB may be crumbly, but it does not creep because there is enough friction between the strands to hold it together. Saw dust just does not stick together well enough, as a result the only "strength" MDF has is from the glue, which is in a permanent viscous state. This is the exact reason you would not want to glue veneer with PVA or urethane glue, it will move on you over time. if you would take a chunk of cured resin used in these products and placed a large heavy object onto it, it would slowly sink into the resin.
