- Use "recovery code" instead of "mnemonic phrase" or "seed phrase". A new tipbox describes that mnemonic implies memorization but that's bad practice. The phrase recovery code is generic enough to apply to a variety of schemes, including Electrum seed words, BIP38 seed words, aezeed, and non-phrase schemes like that used in Muun. - Be clearer about the difference between "wallet" and "wallet software". - Mention that restoring from a code doesn't restore labels or offchain transaction info. - Warn about re-entering your code into malware / phishing attacks.
