What’s funny about that too is that there aren’t but a handful of common derivation paths. You could write a script to load and check all the possible ones in the background to verify any balance, and then prompt the user if one is found while the user selected a different one.

Something like “you chose a P2SH derivation, but there is a Bech32 derivation with 0.2157 bitcoin in it. Would you like to load that as well?”

Apparently Blue Wallet does something like this, although it still didn't work with the Blockstream Green seed.

This happened to a friend of mine. He thought he lost a ton of Bitcoin and almost threw his “empty” seed words out.
