If someone challenges it

Three hard questions. The short true answers.

Three questions people use to poke a hole in this. Answer only what is true. Do not add a step that is not on the sheets.

You typed the words on a laptop.

Yes. On Tails, with networking off, one seed, then a full shutdown. Tails runs from memory and forgets the session. That does not stop a hardware keylogger. One captured seed still cannot spend. The fund needs two keys. Never type two seeds on the same boot.

Why not start with a SeedSigner?

SeedSigner is a signer you can add later. It is not how these keys are made. The randomness is dice. The computer is ordinary, and it is offline. The inheritance sheet is not a SeedSigner guide. It is the letter for heirs: one plate in a Jade, one plate in a BitBox.

If the map passphrase is lost, are the coins gone?

No. That passphrase hides the map. It does not spend. Two plates can rebuild the map if the path is known: 2-of-3, native SegWit, m/48'/0'/0'/2'. Keep that path outside the encrypted file. Do not use a homemade cipher.
