Yes. Radical ideas are the best.
Some might say that disk space is cheap, but what if Monero comes back to $1? Will you waste 500GB of disk space to keep your $50 safe?
The reality is 99% of people will not go out an buy an extra disk just to store chain data, they will just use a remote node or stop using Monero.
I am very much into Monero and would be hesitant to attach extra disk to store the chain.
