Ummmm...there's a fairly recent invention called "fire" that might not
make a paper backup so "ultimate". :-)

More seriously, you definitely want to back up your production
keystore. However, be sure not to "back it up" in a way that it
becomes public, as that would mean anyone else could sign apps with
that key. If they can hack your Google account, they can then turn
around and distribute updates to your apps, perhaps with embedded
malware.

A copy on a thumb drive in a safe deposit box at a nearby bank is one
fairly secure off-site solution, one that will cover you for a
reasonable range of disasters for not all that much money
(particularly if you use the safe-deposit box for other purposes).
