> Isn't this a common enough and plausible scenario

We don't think that any realistic "internet archive - way back
machine" clone would place any archived files into a directory from
which the web server is able to do unrestricted code execution. From
day one, they would store all untrusted files at a location that
allows no code execution (or allows only sandboxed code execution), to
enable later scalability to archiving of non-jpeg files.
