Although (brain wallet produced by human) --> seed key

is recognized and accepted as a bad idea,

    f(brain wallet produced by human) --> seed key

where f is a easily remembered math procedure such as modulo(x), may form an acceptable key

that's ridiculous as f() is also produced by human.

Not to mention that in order to get a 256 private key value from the memorable passphrase,  you need some kind of f() anyway.

WTF does it even mean that something 'is recognized and accepted as a bad idea'?
Sounds to me like an argument brought by someone who has no arguments
