my prior is that bech32m is more satisfying for nerds but is actually worse than seedwords for normal people.

I like bech32m, but I'm not a normal person.

Seedwords are great for users. (Though, I wish that more thought had been out into choosing the BIP39 word list. But alas, that ship has sailed)

i was just thinking before that when you use more than 4 characters for each seedword it's almost like a really bad checksum..

This effect could be better if the words were chosen more carefully?

Yeah, agree.

At the low level, the entire word gets hashed, so you are dependent upon the wallet software to parse the text, remove capital letters and spaces etc.

"Hedgehog" is a terrible word. Why not just use "Hedge"
