    The password is actually physically written up on paper in a huge stack without reference or context in a “if something happens” folder for my wife.

    I also manage my 2FA in that safe which counters the idea of the second factor as defined by the companies but my safe itself is a second factor.

    Database loss is impossible for me because of a misconception in your description: basically by definition, backups can’t be “overwritten” with old data . A backup is write-once. Everything else is just a sparkly copy.

    I’m serious: change your backup strategy please! Incrementell backups don’t use that mich more space and actually back up a status of what you had no matter what you do after or why your local data is broken.

    “I overwrote my stuff” should never destroy a backup IMO.
