Whether there are 1626 words or 2048 words, it's impossible to access a funded wallet.
Yes, but why ? That the question of my post.

In short, 2048^12 permutations.

Because when I delete my wallet and recreate it from the seed (the 12 words), all the transactions appear as well as all the addresses with funds. That's what scares me.

That's how Electrum seed work. Since you have some programming/IT skill, i would recommend you to read this documentation https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/seedphrase.html.
