Backups are easy? Just copy to another piece of paper and store somewhere else.
I'm just being facetious though.
I'm not being facetious though. Off-site backups of a digital password collection are easy to setup and maintain. But when you change your password or add a new entry, it's going to be a pain in the ass to have to drive over and update a physical copy.
If you can live with those downsides, that's fine. But in my opinion it would be facetious to pretend a physical backup is "just as good/usable" as a digital one.
-edit: whoops, misread that as implying that I was being facetious. As you were sir -
