CORRECTION:
You are right about the (real life) notaries function, still being necessary.
As far as I am informed, by my contributorship within CEN & ETSI -EESSI and CEN-NIS, there is still no solution for (very) long TERM
Storage AND RETRIEVAL of documents, key pairs, certificates, relating algorithms, software used etc.
Greetings, Nap

That's by design, all those notaries public don't like being replaced
by smartcards.
