Probaqbly because most film back up is 'automatic' - you take the shot, get
the image on film, have it processed and wind up with a printed image,
except if yoy shoot slides.

As far as lifetime comparisons between digital and film it's six of one
and half a dozen of the other.
At the risk of being Mafud......
The vast majority of digital images are, I expect, on non backed up hard
drives, or non backed up optical media, both of which can suffer
catastrophic failure without any indication that they are failing.
Certainly the same can happen with film, but I'll bet you a nickel that in
the hands of the average user, film is far more archival than digital.
