Not to get too deep into NFTs as I to aren't an expert, but from what I understand the images that are used in NFTs are hosted on from a server and the owner of the NFT doesn't own the server, thus do they really own the image?

I too like to collect things, my latest obsession was lingerie. But I always have the image of extreme hoarders in the back of my mind, which quite often scares me out of collecting to much.

I'm not scared of having too much stuff, I'm scared of not being able to notice it myself.

NFTs could ease that problem. But sadly I'm one of those people that prefer analog radio over digital. Wired over wireless.

The smart contract can do a content addressable way of identifying the image, with e.g. IPFS, and then, while in practice there may be a server which is hosting it for people, if anyone has the image saved, they can (if they choose to) continue act as a host for the image of the original server stops being around.

Not, uh, that NFTs for images like this aren’t silly and largely pointless,

but at least for some of them, the “there’s a server hosting the image” isn’t that much of an issue (at least provided that the person who “owns it” keeps the file locally and backed up)
