How does it improve on just splitting the seed mnemonic, could you give me the lowdown?

Shamir's lets you split it into a 2-of-3 for example, so you are hardened against loss. Loss is still the #1 enemy.

So, is that like having a 24 word seed phrase, then you split it into 3 parts - one with say the first 8 and the last 8, the other with the middle 8 and the last 8, and the third with the first and middle 8, that type of thing?
(never mind, I did a little research on Shamir's Secret Sharing. seems very different).

The idea is like splitting 24 words in 3 parts of 12, or 4 parts of 12, or 4 parts of 8, but so that you can form the whole 24 with only 2x 12, not 3x 12.
