For sure. Also, if the density is sufficiently high compared to alternatives, it could be objectively better anyway. For instance, a typical SSD is rated for less than 1000 full write cycles. So if I have a write-once media with more than 1000 times the space, I’ll be able to write more to it even in the worst-case scenario.
In the film industry, long term storage of digital films is a real issue. Disney still creates a technicolor (3strip) copy of their films as digital data isn’t as reliable as good old silver emulation.
That’s not nothing though. Use cases like YouTube or archival work absolutely had a use case for read only

Huh, pair that with some quality memory for indexing and it would be a pretty good home backup device
All you need is an electron beam microscope. Simple home setup. I don’t see this coming to home users in the near and semi- near future.
