I'm not talking about distribution, merely archiving.

I don't think it's reasonable to argue against archiving when it clearly has cultural significance.

There's absolutely no chance in hell the dude saying he sent a copy to archive.org would have stopped those reddit threads from foaming at the mouth. People want the code, not the archive.
