If history tells us anything: a printed, hard-bound book can last hundreds of years and remains readable through multiple technological revolutions.

I don't know about that. Language changes over time, and very old books can be very hard to read. To keep text readable I think the text needs to be rewritten every couple of hundreds of years using modern words.
