You say you never claimed that it should be a persons archival format. But wouldn't claiming it is today's "buy it once, read it anywhere" format make it the "de facto standard" archival format by your argument?

Unless I am mistaken that you are pushing for Mobipocket as being the format you recommend in every post.
To me your purchased format should be your archival format, or as close to it as possible. And that is not only for convenience but for legality purposes. Down the road it would be hard to argue your ownership of a title you stored in Tahitian Fruitybook format if no distributor sold it as such and you have no other proof of ownership.
