OK, I totally acknowledge that (and agree with the perspective).

Is there—or could there be—a means of “watching” a multisig wallet in Cove? Explicitly I mean no ability to sign and broadcast a transaction; genuinely only watching the wallet?

This is something I could add for sure. Allow users to import multi-sig public descriptors. I’ll create an issue in GitHub. But I have the next little while planned so probably won’t be done for a while.

Can you tell me more about your use case and why would prefer using Cove in this way vs something like Nunchuk?

Incredible! Thank you!

The use case is that I believe it’s too common that bitcoiners wind up with 5-6 wallet apps on their phone, where the fiat analogue is 2-3 at most, for many people 1-2.

Cove has beautiful UX and so much going for it, and given the top tier hardware wallet support, it strikes me that it’s primarily a savings/hodl wallet versus a spending wallet.

So I figured it would be good to consolidate multiple wallets into Cove, with the majority for monitoring purposes. Hence watch-only suffices. For multi-sig, this is indeed complex and can be handled with nunchuk for people who want to manage multi sig on mobile, or (more likely imo) handled via Sparrow/Electrum.

Hope this helps!
