To all the naysayers: if the claims hold up this will be super useful for some industries. Example, I worked at a human genomics lab for diagnostics. By law we were supposed to retain raw data for a whopping 120 years. With a couple terabyte per individual for a WGS, the storage and backup costs were very much non-trivial.
As a data analyst at mid-large corporation in America: please stop emailing me that the servers are nearly full. I need to store all of this to stay within regulations and you only give me one place to put my data outputs :(
As a regular computer user: please stop telling me my OneDrive is full, I don't even use it, I have no idea how it filled up
Yeah genomics research has this white elephant problem where the data retention for open science/publication is incredibly expensive for the ones doing the research.
