It's not victim blaming. It's simply a reiteration that it helps to have this in place if you are specifically opting to rent/lease a server that does not offer it.

Also, it's stated in the knowledgebase that it is advisable to set up server backups of your own if you do not have a managed server: https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx...

I don't believe you properly understand what victim blaming is or the argument I am making here, hence the reason I recommended you and your CIO don't bother continuing trying to discuss this. You're giving people reason to dislike Namecheap for no gain to yourself and your brand.
