In practice after a few months the web server hosting your NFT's image goes down and it's broken.

Oh I understand that. The server doesn't even need to go down, a specific NFT can simply be blacklisted. I was asking to see if there is something I'm missing.

I was making a one off joke about how long an NFT theoretically could last (until the blockchain itself dies due to nobody using it, or what have you). The rest of my commentary was quite serious.

If the NFT is backed by a DApp[0] it should not matter if the regular web server is gone so long as there's fuel to keep the DApp going.
