A wallet that if you loose funds, your life will be destroyed. So probably hardware wallets yes. For spending wallets, I don't see a problem show the seed, but I think we should go in the direction of at least have option to restore funds without having to insert seeds, maybe passkey.

Sounds like we probably have a language barrier my friend. So I won’t go into too much detail here in English. But please please. Study Bitcoin (at the protocol layer) more with any material you can find. There is so much available now. You have a few obvious misconceptions. The first one is that all of these hardware devices are the “wallets”. They never were (nor could ever BE) because a bitcoin wallet is simply a piece of entropy. A seed phrase. Possibly with a passphrase on top (more entropy. Good) or multi signature configuration (even more entropy. Better) These cyberspace “wallets” don’t require ANY device to exist. The words/entropy are THE “wallet”. If I smash my hardware device with a hammer that was storing my words, NOTHING has changed in cyberspace. It’s just that without a back-up (in my head or otherwise) I won’t have ACCESS to any satoshis in that (cyber) wallet. This entire debacle has (mostly) been about WHERE those words that make up your “wallet”/entropy CAME FROM. A trusted 3rd party or YOU? And did you even know the difference. Hope that helps. Be safe 🙏🏻🫶
