what's the problem with Trezor as a company though, just curious.
They are anti-privacy and actively support blockchain analysis via their partnership with Wasabi.so if you were storing $1,000,000 (or whatever you consider to be a large amount of money 
) you wouldn't have any issue slapping in 2 AAA batteries into it and the first seed phrase it generates you go with that one?
I'm probably never going to store that much money in a hardware wallet (or indeed, in a single wallet at all). Multiple separate cold storage wallets is the way to go.) you wouldn't have any issue slapping in 2 AAA batteries into it and the first seed phrase it generates you go with that one?Although I would also be using a separately generate and secure passphrase, so even if my seed phrase was compromised my funds would still be protected.
so you can create your seed phrase by flipping a coin and then use that on the hardware wallet? they let you put in your own seed phrase, i'm assuming. would that be an acceptable thing for you?
For an open source and airgapped hardware wallet, yes. For a Ledger device, no.
