Yes, 404 errors would be the undesired behavior that should be eliminated 
(not that we're seeing it now or would see it in the future, just something to 
add to the list of redesign points).

Preserving outdated content is much less important, probably in decreasing 
importance the older you get. Although, I probably would agree that archiving 
it is not a bad thing if it isn't too much of a burden.

IMHO, how elimination of 404 errors is achieved is not as big of a concern as 
long as it is transparent in most cases, and accessible in something 
reasonably close to all cases.

Cheers,
