people also used rocks for eternal storage... remember the cave paintings?
This brings up the question of why choose gold when other media will do? Carving inscriptions into stone would also give you the persistence you wanted.
Perhaps it was simply vanity, as maybe the NFT-spammers are today.
But hopefully, my point is that Bitcoin can survive as a monetary unit even if it's also being used on the side as data storage, just like gold had.
