I am always blown away by archivists who think this way.  (I know you 
don't, you're just relaying the information.)  I doubt a Webster's 2nd 
edition would be worth anything if the pages were unreadable.

I wonder if they take it a step further and treat the diskette itself as 
optional, which leaves you with an effectively empty box.
