Although a sound plan, and something that can be automated, it overrides BackupPC's hardlink mechanism and increases storage. Plus, restore becomes a manual process of going to the proper zip file and restoring manually.
If I was the only admin, then restores would be a minor inconvenience. Since I'm not, it becomes troublesome.
