That's amazing -- though the art world's take on the value of these
kinds of things kinda boggles my mind. $200M for glass plate negatives?

Unlike prints, negatives can duplicate perfectly the image over and
over.

Not quite. As valuable as those negatives might be, there is half of
the Adams creative process missing, the darkroom print work he did
himself, or supervised.
Without his print specific darkroom notes, you might be able to
replicate a close approximation of an Adams print from those negatives,
but you would not have an "Adams" print.
