Yes, sorry :) Was just trying to clarify it because the GP was talking about sync vs backup. But yeah, multiple copies is a good idea!

Yours is an extremely important clarification too.

Syncs get even worse, because most promised unlimited backups of revisions (thereby implying restoration)... And now maye when "deleted" files take up too much room, they disappear.

There are file clouds out there that seem to be better for the natural kind of use, whether it's backblaze, tarsnap, sync.com, self-hosted options and others.
