Guys,
There is a reason. It's not some sort of strange conspiracy or security back door.
They keep the data on removable drives so that the drives can be locked in a safe when they're not in use, and they are supposed to lock said drives in said safe any time they are not actually using the data. It's that simple.
Yeah, there are flaws in the plan, but that's the reason for it.
