Dad: Son, why do you not use numbers based the word’s indexed number in the BIP39 list instead of the first 4 letters of the recovery word?
Son: Hi Dad,
That's a good question. Let's quote the BIP39 creators to answer it.
"A mnemonic code or sentence is superior for human interaction compared to the handling of raw binary or hexadecimal representations of a wallet seed. The sentence could be written on paper or spoken over the telephone"
I think it is wrong to use numbers when the creators intentionally designed the standard so that we use words.
Dad: Ok, makes sense. Thanks.
