I really wish you aren't that dismissive.  He had raised a valid gap in your 
risk analysis, and honestly understandable.  The way you respond may make 
someone reading this thread down the line to miss the risk involved, and only 
learn the hard way.  Backup is an exercise of balancing the risk with expenses.

A better way would have been to say, yes, I understand I am exposed if someone 
was to get in my network and delete both the data  and the backup, but I accept 
and plans to live with that risk..

Regards,
William
