I think that's a premature judgement. Is there any reason to think that it's impossible to scale it down? e.g. for PPE, 5mm ceramic spheres in a 1cm-thick Aluminimum foam with some 1mm steel plates on either side?

That solution is an order of magnitude more expensive, so isn't really a viable alternative. For say 200TB of backup over 5 years: Rsync.net: $0.015/GB/month [0] * 200000GB * 60 months = $180000 LTO-8: $3600 for a drive [1],
