Multisig Question: Are 12 word seed phrases optimal for, say a 2-of-3 setup, as 24 seems a bit overkill, especially as you scale up to a 3-of-5, but what’s the opinion on this?

I think 12 words are enough for a single sig setup but I use 24 words because it only costs a little more time.

A 2 of 3 multisig using 3 x 12 words is more secure than a 24 word single sig.

You're more likely to lose access to your multisig setup than to lose exclusive knowledge of it.

Yes, the added complexity to the user of multiple 24 word keys seems like more of a liability than a benefit.
