>30 years in the future is likely more comparable to 60 years in the past. Hello punch-cards.

this part is a pro for S3 not a con. In this analogy OP is trying to store the information held by the punch-card, not the punch-card itself. So giving the information over to a business means they will preserve your binary data by moving it from punch-cards to HDD to SSD, etc - they will handle the hardware changes and redundancy.

Your first point stands strong though
