I really loved your recent podcast episodes where you talked about all the security concerns on normal hardware devices. So I wonder, in your experience with Coldcard and other "low hardware" devices, would you say it is possible to have an ESP32 or similar device (maybe I am just stupid and there already is a coldcard version doing this) that with additional modules (like a camera, a screen and a keyboard) is able to scan a qr code containing an encrypted seed and ask for the passphrase to decrypt it (plus all the other signing stuff)? I am not talking about the 25th word of the seed, but 12 or 24 wordsof a seed that have been encrypted in a file and then converted as a qr code image, so the scan part will have to decrypt it before accessing the seed. The thing I don't like about hardware signing devices is that they assume a seed qr image to be in clear.

Maybe I am just wrong on some level, maybe there is something I am not considering, but I would like to know your opinion on this.
