Hard question that haunts me for a while. Maybe for someone as smart as Hynek (npub1lz8…h86s)
12 word seed is protected by 2^132 while 24 word seed is 2^256.
Why the heck did we allow that compromise? That is like 38 levels of magnitude worse defense against possible brute force hack. Am I right or wrong?
