Do the upcoming changes to Backup and Restore apply to QuickBooks Advanced?

If QuickBooks Online only backs up 1 year of company data, can we download our backup history?

The backup feature of QuickBooks Online (QBO) Advanced allows access to data older than a year, but has some limitations. For more detailed information, you can refer to this article: Back up and restore your QuickBooks Online Advanced Company.

Additionally, to save backup files in MS format, you can export them.

I was asking in response to the attached copy of an email received. So, if it does apply to Online Advanced, can we somehow save the back up files to our MS files or in some other way? Not sure that we would ever need more than 1 year, but it seems a bit restrictive. I assume we will still have all of our data in the QB database?
