To me, it was not obvious until I read the article in full. When I saw the 75% number I thought they only meant the original copy because surely there must exist some form of a copy in some archive somewhere, but I was wrong. There are no copies in existence whatsoever for these 75%, which is a mind-blowingly high number for me. If someone would have asked me I would have said maybe 1%.
I do agree that it's related and that it will likely lead to a similar outcome where new things get lost permanently.
