qbittorrent shows you how many seeders each part of the file has. Archivists can prioritise the parts with the least.
Assuming those come to the rescue and quick enough before the last one abandons the seed without looking if someone is leeching the last part to make a 100% completion possible.
Look mate. We all know every once in a while a torrent dies or will be incomplete for ever. There's no denying that.
That's not a different or added risk vs a website.
The only change is that it's significantly easier to keep an archive going.
