Do we need to keep the DNA away from bacteria? Would it not be digested for nutrients or food? Or is that just propaganda from the salesman pushing memory carbon for my looongterm data storage needs?

DNAse contamination would be a big problem too. It would also be a relatively easy way to "securely" erase your data.
