For anyone reading, I would like to say all of these methods are flawed for various reasons. Please, read on regular, simple best practices instead of doing funky approaches.
What is truly flawed is the general advice, that I've seen dozens of times along the years, recommending people "to write down the seed on paper and keep it in a safe place". It's just plain absurd.
Nothing "funky" in using apps designed for encrypted storage of sensitive data, already storing all your most important data (id/passwords, bank cards etc.) to also store your Bitcoin seeds.

That's a good point. But the main difference between bitcoin and your ID, passwords and bank cards is that most actions can be reversed by a central party or LE can attempt to do something.
With bitcoin, no amount of LE will probably help you if you lose your bitcoins
