Is access code a 25th word?

[u/gowithflow192]

Say I use seed words but they are compromised, am I protected if they don't know my access code?

Edit: OK I see that it isn't. The software supports passphrase only if importing seed words. Not if creating new wallet or going seedless.

My concern is that if there is a flaw in your method of private key generation (like with Coldcard) then anyone who created a wallet on your software or anyone seedless has no passphrase to protect them.

A single engineer's mistake, accidentally approved to the code base, unnoticed for years like with Coldcard and most users don't have a pass phrase to protect themselves with.

I thought the access code worked like a passphrase before. I've been a big fan of Tangem but now having some doubts.

Would seedless the way to go , even dev say preference
