interesting, you are once again are rationalizing a crime, that is a
fact. You are trying to equate what a reporter or editor should do
with leaked information, to that of posting private emails that were
acquired by a hacker, and how a webmaster could handle things. But
you are missing the point of how the information was aquired.
Attempting to marginalize such a topic with your lame
characterizations, does not make a logical case, it just shows how you
are willing to justify a crime....

If a leftist steals documents or emails from a big, bad evil
corporation, or from a Republican Administration, it is praise-worthy
"whistle-blowing", and you'll fight to the death for the right of the
reporter to avoid having to comply with court orders to name the
source. If a non-leftist double parks in the process of uncovering
massive fraud in the name of science, you'll prosecute them like
you're the Spanish Inquisition. Yeh, we get it.

It's merely *their copies* they destroyed; the originals are still where
they've always been, at the facilities that actually made the
measurements.

You don't understand either. Without the mapping of station data to adjusted
data, the adjusted data is meaningless. Sure, the original data is (or may) be
there, but you don't know how it was employed.

So it will require re-compiling all the original data again, and rebuilding
the database and redoing all the calculations. Big task, but that is what is
going to have to be done.
