If, as the article states, it's a ~10 year store, the photographer is going
to have a lot more problems maintaining colour balance than having a single
batch of chemistry.  Even frozen, the colour balance for colour critical
work will shift over that time period.  And E6 chemistry doesn't last 10
years.
