The only thing I really want to back up are photos and documents and it’s probably < 200GB. Anything else digital (like games, movies, music, books, …) I could buy again if I really wanted another copy.

Go for it. Perfect use case. But make sure to buy mdiscs, not just standard bdxl.

Much more expensive, but makes sense for that use case.
