>I see little value in a passphrase if you are going to simply write it down next to your 24 word seed phrase.
True, you really don’t need a passphrase… but you have a „significant“ amount of funds. If your device is stolen, then it is useless without the passphrase. (Although not easy to use, there are known hacks to pull a seed phrase from a pin-protected trezor). Also, the passphrase lets you have more separate wallets, if you wanted to have one to play around with, without accidently doing something to your funds, or wanted to split up your funds, or whatever
​
>It also increases the future risk of an inaccessible wallet.
No more risk than losing the seed phrase and losing the device. You are already keeping track of 24 words, the passphrase is just 1 more item to keep track of.
