Yeah, though it has that issue with data density. The denser the data, the more likely it will become degraded from erosion or chipping.
Also if there’s a discontinuity between our civilization and a future one, the denser the data, the less likely any future civilization would discover it’s there, even if it still has enough integrity to be read.
