Out of curiosity, is there any particular reason why one would have a
browse policy that's difference than the retention policy?

I can perhaps see a browsing period that's longer, so you can have some
historical information on how / when backups occur. But what good is
retaining the save sets if they're not in the index? Running 'scanner'
seems like a waste of time.
