Hello samabc!
You’re right that blob containers can be backed up, but they can’t be backed up directly using a Recovery Services Vault (RSV). RSVs are mainly designed for resources such as Azure VMs, SQL databases, and Azure Files. For blob containers, you would actually back up the entire storage account that holds the blob container, and this is done through Azure Backup with a Backup Vault.
Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/blob-backup-configure-manage?tabs=operational-backup
So, the answer is still correct because the backup is managed at the storage account level, not the blob container itself, and it requires using a Backup Vault instead of an RSV.
Let me know if you need any more clarification. I’m happy to help!
