I would say, tape and modern archive solutions in parallel might leverage benefits. Modern archive leverage faster search and processing, and Tape systems will keep their benefits with low usage (lesser wearing) With this approach I would say is ok, however removing tapes feels troublesome. In case of an event of „modern“ storage damage/issues, what they will gona do, hence tapes still can be used for recovery.
With the amount of data generated these days, backing up only using tapes is not a solution, but getting rid of tapes altogether, is something unwise, especially for the sake of "modern".
