In both cases ideally, you would still have a human-readable backup of your keys.
With a ColdCard you are trusting "source viewable" but not Open Source software.
With a seedsigner you are trusting open source software, and you can buy the general purpose components to create without putting your contact info on a list showing you bought Bitcoin related stuff. Better OPSEC.
