Your Jedi senses serve you well, the manual confirms that the ARCHIV command is intended only for KERMIT, and while XMODEM can indeed be used for serial transfer of variables, there is no support for a fiull backup via ARCHIV. Mystery solved. But your confusion is not surprising, no one here seems to have recalled this either...
