Seed phrases are for cavemen. change my mind

Seed phrases are the dumbest shit ever.

its a password that:

  1. isnt easily remembered by memory (randomly generated 16 words)
  2. Newbies dont know what its for (easily scammed)
  3. you literally have to write it on a piece of paper (cavemen)
  4. and anybody that sees this password can steal your whole wallet (talk about anxiety)

this is going backwards in security, literally.

Social Recovery (email, password, guardians) should be more widely adopted by wallets and its sad that not more wallets offer this.
