I've tried that in the past the problem is if somehow the archive.org content is
wrong then the user is misdirected. Keeping the original URL is better since
some users may have known or know where to get a copy of the content if anyone
cares they'll look at the footnote. I'd rather them have no details vs wrong
ones.
