Yea, I found that out unfortunately. Also, if you back up the full device, not only are you given a new 12 words to protect, but if you were previously using a passphrase, now your device backup has the passphrase derived wallet as the main seed (i.e no longer passphrase protected), which is unfortunate. I’d love a way to use deterministic entropy to export encrypted secure notes (bring the note back to the coldcard and it can be decrypted only if you’re in the right wallet), but it seems that’s not currently possible. Wasn’t able to get an answer from support if it’s a technical limitation or just a design choice.
