Much easier to remember and to transcribe compared to writing down a string that looks like random garbage.

how much BTC are you willing to bet that you'll remember 24 randomly generated seed words? probably not much.. that's why parent was advocating "you just need to *write down* the 12 or 24 seed words generated by your hardware wallet"

How much are you willing to bet that you transcribed a string of gibberish correctly (including case variations). Isn't a sequence of real words more fault tolerant?
