Funny thing...your eyes will never be "legacy tech".
It's an interesting phenomenon that we tend to try solving problems originally exacerbated by technology by turning to even more sophisticated technology.
And somehow, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, we seem to believe the newer technology will be more permanent than the previous iteration.
For example...
We have a good idea about what the subject of Da Vinci's
Mona Lisa looked like six centuries after her passing and it could be argued that due to the prism of the artist's genius we know more than just her physical appearance- all without a watt of electricity being expended.
Six hundred years from now will someone (thing?) be able to pick up a miraculously preserved DVD disk and look into the heart of your children?
