Suggestions for being able to recreate your own websites:

YIKES... This shows the importance of keeping backups in a different cloud, or on-premise or something - and not trust one provider with your entire company / website

I like how they say "copy from wayback" like 'Save As..' works well on modern websites.

Seriously this. There's so much backend now that websites we view are pretty much created on demand instead just static html, css, and JavaScript.
