Business case for this "drivel" :

There is a limit to which FRA size can be increased.
I may get a requirement where I need to flashback the database to a point in time beyond the maximum possible retention period.
For this purpose I want to preserve old copies of flashback logs by backing them up to tape.
Also writing to tape has its advantages. (Like additional backup copy)
Whenever a request comes which needs flashback logs beyond the retention policy I need to get the logs from tape.
For this purpose I need to restore these logs from tape to disk.

Now just SHUT UP and let some knowledgeable person answer this question.
