Would it not be better to put that money towards new and future scientific endeavors?

No
(That's where the being sentimental part comes in.)

I respect your logic.
But it's heart not head for me in this. I would pay a ridiculous amount of money for something from the Winter Journey. And if it was a shovel it would just be a shovel, and one I could not even use. Except during a Zombie Apocalypse, Shaun of the Dead stylee.

So to me, owning the negatives is important.
And I accept it probably doesn't make sense
