If your hard drive fails, all data is lost; if a film fades or gets damaged, you can still retrieve data from it. Also, that print could be watched with the most primitive technology, what makes it even watchable after some sort of apocalypse, whereas the digital file relies on someone deeming it worthy of converting it to the next generation.
There is absolutely no downside of an archival print additional to a digital file, so I don’t get what you’re arguing about here. It’s not one or the other.
