If you're considering multisig because of the recent ColdCard fiasco, be aware it doesn't eliminate security concerns, it simply moves them.

Maybe we should use Border wallets to generate seeds 😂
While entropy and the nature of randomness are hot topics right now.
Here's a little thought experiment:
Have you ever played the lottery?
Would you choose the following numbers:
1,2,3,4,5,6 ?
No?
Why not?
They are just as likely to win as any other set, yet if we realise how unlikely that particular set of numbers has a chance of winning, perhaps we'd realise how futile it is to play.
I’ve received a CoinKite email and I never even bought a ColdCard 😂
