Thanks, man!
I'm pretty sure I have the right seed, as I even wrote the version number in my notes, but do you think I can try once to see if it's the right seed and if that fails then try to extract the 16-character GA data? Or trying to recover the wallet from the seed would mess things up?

It won't mess up anything (aside from lack of 2FA) since Electrum only generate bunch of keys/addresses based on seed you enter.

Yeah, I intend to run Electrum from my Debian 12 daily driver, which I believe is pretty secure.
I wish I could just use apt to get it on Linux, but apparently it's an appimage. I'll make sure it's the right URL (https://electrum.org/), spend the UTXOs into an exchange address and then convert into fiat immediately.
My main stash is on Bitcoin Core and offline copied across several USB thumbdrives. In hindsight, I wish I had never used Electrum. Don't even remember why I didn't consolidate everything into Bitcoin Core because it was so long ago, but I wish I had.

At a glance, your setup should be secure enough. As for apt, actually it's possible since you use Debian.

Although personally i never tried Electrum from Debian repository and obviously it's a bit outdated.
