What about Shamir Secret Sharing?
It’s getting some tractions since we don’t expect to see covenants in the near future.
SSS is an interesting approach, and even a weaker redundant seed split (aka "poor man's" SSS) can help secure the backup.
A downside (e.g., compared to multisig) is, that it only secures your backup at rest. You still need to bring the full backup together and input it into the hww, creating a single point of failure. I'm more bullish on a simple multisig implementation, as this allows to sign a PSBT sequentially, geographically distributed, never all less in one place.
Probably more of an apples/oranges comparison, though... : -)

On Trezor, you don't need to collect the shares into a one place. You start the recovery process, enter a share and you can move with the Trezor into a location of the 2nd share etc.
