PETG is great but ABS is still more durable I think in most cases and probably more rigid.
But PETG does not give off toxic fumes. I believe I remember there being even less fumes than PLA.
PETG is trickier to print than PLA though, but easier (and safer) than nylon. TPU and TPE are flexible and don't really compare apples to apples with the others.
I've printed primarily in PETG for a few years now and just started printing voron parts in ASA. ASA is way more rigid than PETG, but PETG will yeild more than ASA before breaking.
