I would gladly pay more to keep e.g. 5 daily, 4 weekly, 6 monthly backups, if the price of keeping them is similar to the price on Google Storage.
This is purely as a wish; I know I can take additional backups simply by clicking on "export data".
Having the additional backups would be useful not so much in case of catastrophic data loss (in which case I would restore the latest backup), but in case I have some subtle problem that I don't notice immediately, and that I need to correct by going back to some older version of the data. For that to be useful, however, I would really need to have the ability to restore the backup in a _different_ database, so that I can then write some code that compares the two and does whatever fixes necessary.
Obviously this is a low priority food for thought; so far I am quite happy simply exporting a copy of the DB before doing important code changes.
