You might stretch that to two or three weeks, depending on the reliability of your storage provider, but I would strongly suggest at least two full, verified, backups at all times if you go the long-string route. You can always remove the incrementals once the next backup and verification is done.

Can you use this backend in connection with other backends? I am
currently using the azure back end, but if I could get parity that
would be nice.
