What can that be used for? I mean, if we failed to get the $10 check from Mr. Guy, maybe we can get your left whatever, but we don't know what to do with it, and if it worth the effort. Mr. Guy's check, well, that would be extremely valuable, put it in a frame on a wall, in a hundred years will worth millions... What a pity the due date is passed...

Backup in case of accidental deletion, or some virus corrupting the contents. Having two online 100% of the time does not provide a backup solution, it is an availability of solution.

But he said he'd give up his left testicle in return for another. Where's the redundancy in that arrangement?

Aah! You're suggesting that his current left testicle is defective in some way and he's trying to find a cover for arranging a swap...

Clearly he wants to pass the left testicle to someone else as a backup. In return he offers to hold a backup for someone else. It's an offsite backup solution.
