true, there certainly are a lot of areas where you can mess up. I dont think it's necessary as bad as you may think, especially if you customize it to some phrase or lyrics you only know, but that's why i think memory + backup is the best way -- try to operate having it memorized, but rest assured knowing you have the backups. Memory is the backup of the lost backup!
You may be right. I can see some benefits, but also some downsides (torturing the seed phrase out of you, using drugs to trick you, overconfidence in your memory, physical head injury). I haven't seen using a memory backup as being an recommendation from a security expert so i'm skeptical as using it as a selling point for the ease of self custody.
