Sorry, I missed the word "physical" in your post, but since you asked
about physical bluray, obviously you missed the word "rips" in my
original post. Going back even further, I appear to have got mixed up.
When the question was "why don't you want to store them on a hard
drive" I was thinking the alternative is re-compressing them, but
obviously in this thread we were talking about the alternative being
the original physical media. I guess I'm tired. So I'll take the blame
for the mixup.

Does anyone want to start another thread discussing full bluray rips
vs recompressing so I can repost my reply there and this time come off
sounding intelligent?
