You're very welcome for the answers jcofin13, and glad I could add some clarity. I agree on the first point, likely just retention had "hit" at the right time, I would not put too much thought onto this one unless you're missing backups that were essential, it seems fairly normal situation for me.
> keep copies longer
Mostly just wanted to point out we have options to keep specific out-of-band copies if there is a need before you clear out the original backups. For example, you might not need an entire 20 point chain, but you need one point for archival purposes. Export Backup can do this by making a standalone full backup from any given restore point, and the standalone full backup can have its own retention.
You can do this similarly with the entire backup itself with Copy Backup, which I think is what you're asking in your final paragraph -- you can point that to whatever storage you like (SOBR or non-SOBR target), and avoid the cloning of jobs, shuffling repositories, etc.
