Encryption protocols have relied for years on entropy that has never failed because it is well-designed and thoroughly tested—the closest example to us being Bitcoin Core.

The dice analogy is like saying that just because one manufacturer produced a defective product, I’m going to start riding horses again.

That’s the problem—the lack of review—and it’s precisely what I explained in my message: hardware wallets are rarely reviewed because they’re commercial products; they aren’t there for the good of the community like Bitcoin Core, OpenSSL libraries, etc., are.
