> Self custody doesn't require using a hardware ledger

Does this mean you recommend not using one? Because that goes against all the common best practice recommendations from when I did a couple of years working in Web3 stuff a few years back.

> I think it's naive to suggest that self-custody is just a novelty with no value.

That's not what I suggested.

I suggested that it is less secure over time than centralized exchanges, even with the things you listed.
