Preserving old original floppy disks may be useful, for several reasons, but I myself got rid of all my floppy disks many years ago when USB sticks became viable; even ages ago already, e. g. using CDs and DVDs getting rid of floppy disks - so actually those USB devices killed my use case for floppy disks, CDs and DVDs. I still like DVDs but having USB sticks is simply more convenient in the long run.

The longevity of NAND flash is still very questionable, particularly modern high-density TLC/QLC:

SLC and early MLC should be OK for at least a few decades if not very worn, however

Indeed, some create master disk images with forensic tools, and physical drives:

Then use clean disk images on USB floppy emulators for old equipment:

It is rare to need these tools, but for some folks it is important. =3
