The big plus for implementing genArchiveRecords() is that if 
genArchiveRecords() can provide historical archive records you have the 
ability to catch up if WeeWX looses its connection to the station. Without 
genArchiveRecords() catchup is not possible. If there is no ability to 
provide historical archive records and genArchiverRecords() is just 
synthesising an archive record from what is essentially loop data you are 
just duplicating what WeeWX already does.
