You wouldn't store the entire site on the blockchain, that's obviously unrealistic. It'd be an optional feature for those willing to pay to make a specific page extra safe. Ancillary to the site; not replacing it. The mantra of archivists is LOCKSS (Lots Of Copies Keeps Stuff Safe). The more platforms and formats the better. Your belief seems the opposite. You've rejected every suggestion for a back up so far. Basically arguing because no system is 100% perfect it's best not to use any of them.

Yes, the word “archive” in the title is misleading. The main purpose is to hold up ephemeral web pages for latecomers. Shots taken more than a few days ago have almost no visits.
Lots of copies also require multiple independent copy operators. Bitcoin SV offers 35 operators, and a vague future at a very high price (plus it would require lots of third-party sites to bring the blockchain data back to html: the blockchain nodes do not do it).
OK, we have one option for LOCKSS. More bad than good, but at least something. What else?
