A rare post that actually says what I've been saying. I still think the need to sell hardware wallets has caused of what a hardware wallet is supposed to be and how useful it is and is not supposed to be all in the name of sales.

In hindsight, we should push for it to be common practice for devices to warn users that generating keys on device is not guaranteed to be 100% secure and to propose rolling your own entropy.

By the way, even supplying dice rolls to a device is not good enough. If you can take that entropy and turn it into 11 words yourself then when the device gives you your 12 seed words, at least you can compare notes and know that the computer is using the entropy you provided.
