Creating a perpetual I-D archive for the sake of rfcdiff is not a good

Let's not forget there was a reason for expiration.
I'm OK with the archive being public so long as at least the authors can
remove an ID *without needing to provide a reason*.
Yes, removal from the IETF site will not expunge copies from the entire
Internet, but the IETF site should set the example here, and respect the
original intent of allowing an ID to expire.
