Also, not having an optional first-party companion app is a major downside. This could've been handled much faster and with less friction if there was an app flow that a) alerted to a signer having a vulnerable firmware. b) initiated a migration tx to a new seed as soon as the device firmware is updated (possibly a hop to a software key in the interim if the signer can only have one active private key).
If Bitkey can do it (ex: the enhanced privacy upgrade requiring a new key - seamless flow) every company should have a similar flow ready for this type of situation.
It should only take a couple of clicks.
