I'm afraid the majority of the people who are doing it sovereignly, regardless of how simple or complex thier setup, probably have some fear that their partner/kid is just not going to be able to with stand the heat (either the recovery or the management or the potential government attention). Maybe they are more comfortable with the rent seekers and tax storm troopers taking a ℅ of the stack then risking the inheritor f'ing it up and being left with nothing. I hope this is not the reason, as it's incredibly sad, but it does align with your comment on fucked up risk assessments.
Everything published related to Bitcoin inheritance planning that comes up online with a simple search is anti sovereign Bitcoiner. They all introduce multiple third-party intermediaries and focuses on working "within the existing legal framework". I get that most of this is coming from legacy financial advisors and "coordinators" of multi-sig services but it is still disappointing.

We have this amazing thing called Bitcoin that we can each individually utilize to regain some semblance of sovereignty, but it seems like even some self proclaimed Bitcoin only types are missing the opportunity to emphasize the mind blowing elements of the sovereignty available within the topic of "inheritance planning".

Is it as simple (and stupid) as it's hard to monitize helping people become more sovereign? Is it KYC complications combined with a focus on "mass adoption"? Is it just a warped risk assessment (focusing on consequences versus probability) which makes it so personal that you have to arrive at it alone?

Why do you think this is?
