hilarious to get voted down for this and the equivalent comment is still, please stop wasting storage on data that is never going to be needed. If the LHC can find the Higgs Boson before hitting the exa-scale then it's not needed to id

Yeah, my big feeling is it's become a philosophical question as to where it's the same server after so many updates/upgrades.
