I think it's more the 3 1/2" floppy that worries him.
I'm old enough for the earlier model 5 1/4" floppy to be a relevant worry!
They really were floppy unlike the more rigid 3 1/2" models, but fortunately, I can afford regular upgrades...
To be serious, when I bought my first computer in 1987 two 5 1/2" floppy drives and no HDD was still common.
I went for,
"the massive 20MB HDD you could never possibly fill" at $200 (which is probably equivalent to $2000 in today's money).
