I unironically keep an original copy of those documents in my safety deposit box because of this. In theory I should be able to go to the courthouse and get another copy but if 40 years down the line they've lost them I'm screwed.
I feel bad for the people in states that don't require court orders for this because they apparently have the worst time trying to update accounts.
