I think they just mean it won't naturally degrade over time, like other physical storage media might. Obviously if you really wanted it bad enough, you could physically destroy the data.
If the surface is a gold alloy, you don't really need to want it "bad enough" at all. Gold is a soft metal and unless you treat it with care, scratches will be common.
