You're completely right that the media solution will be gone before ten years pass.

That said, I'd prefer to have as much headroom possible, if data is to be stored reliably.

5 years before migrating, with a 15-20 year window vs 5 years before migrating, with a 50-100 year window

Probably a better recovery rate, at their scale.
