I don't think anyone ever suggested it was possible to erase all trace of a fic from the internet either, did they? That is neither here nor there when it comes to taking down those archived items that are under your control, which things archived by the Wayback Machine are, as well as personal archives and authorised archives. That is entirely the author's prerogative, and it isn't an insult to stop providing a free service you no longer wish to provide. It's annoying, sometimes, sure. But so is sunburn, which is why you take steps to prevent it from affecting you; if you love a story that much, save a copy.
