Seems more likely that having paper copies of everything can accidentally get tossed out, lost in a fire etc.
Backing up electronically can be saved in various locations easily and in a "cloud" so even if your computer is stolen/broken/on fire you'll still have a source for your stuff.

This is far more effort than just putting your papers in a box file in the attic.
Paper is essentially forever unless you screw it up, a digital format is at best a decade no matter what you do.
Most of what I need as essential has to be in paper anyway, court documents or insurance papers are bugger all good in any other form.
