Something more: I fail to understand why are people still focused so much on classical paper wallets when they can run Electrum (either safely installed and verified, either from Tails OS), generate a seed and a few addresses and.. done.

Because at times you want to hand a piece of paper to somebody. The Opendime  / Satodime have a real cost to them and as I found out can fail. Yes a piece of paper with a private key can be damaged or destroyed too.

I guess that I was not clear enough, so I'll say it a bit different: why generate a paper wallet with private key when one can as easy generate a HD seed, which is less prone to errors too?
