The whole point of Bitcoin is to Self-Custody.
You have ultimate control over your money, and I agree 99% of the population is not ready for this responsibility, or freedom but when they are hopefully we will have built top notch tools that balance easy of use, and sovereignty for most users.
Not necessarily. Even those that don't self custody can benefit from bitcoin being a replacement for central banks. It's missing out on a lot of the freedom aspect though.
Personally, I disagree but if people can find solutions to store their crypto more easily without seed phrase like Satochips, Bitkeys, or whatever solutions exist out there then more power to them.
Me personally I'm used to seed phrases by now.
