99.999% (or whatever) of the time cars are used to go from A to B and there's no real thought about it. How many people do you really think make backups for purely personal storage redundancies? This feels more like grape juice and yeast kits (or whatever) from the prohibition era.

I'm sorry but no. Anyone who's into collecting retro gaming console knows the importance of being able to back up your game cartridges. The technology isn't infaillible. Especially over time.
