The Sword and the Water

Should Bedivere have kept Excalibur? 

Bedivere thinks that keeping Excalibur would do much more for Arthur's legacy than throwing it back into the lake. If he kept it, we might've actually have definitive proof that Arthur and Camelot had existed. He had already disobeyed Arthur twice and each time he returned, the king was closer to death.

Should he have just waited for Arthur to die and held on to the sword, disobeying his king's final wish? 

Did history lose out on one of its greatest treasures because Bedivere remained loyal to Arthur, even as he was bleeding out and possibly delirious?
