If you get detained or worse, the BTC is cut off. If you do the multisig, your trusted partner can still access the funds, either as an heir, or to support any issues you might run into. In general, I don't like recommending people go at it alone when large amounts or high stakes are involved.

Shamir backed up seed of course.

There's practically no difference for this case, and Shamir doesn't support tinelocks for other uses like inheritance, or other advanced scripting features like decaying multisig quorums. Also, in the world we're trying to get to, where everyone ideally controls a personal private seed (and BIP85 child seeds), why bother sending them a shard of a single key in addition?
