Why do they say that? Correct me if I'm wrong. Isn't, hardware wallet, a hardware like usb, that generates private keys without being online on the internet?

Why do I not like them? Because, in addition with a txt file that you can encrypt with many ways and save it in many places, if your hardware stops working, you're a dead man. And you're going to fix it somewhere? Not that recommended. If you're a paranoid of course.

Prove me wrong, by not telling me the cons of software wallet. Prove me wrong, by telling me the pros of hardware wallet.

Yes, that's right .. We are always looking for the safest way to save our encrypted currencies, but there are always pros and cons for each type of hot or cold wallets .. I consider the advantages of cold wallets somewhat more than their negatives, unlike hot wallets that can be penetrated and stolen easily.
