You bring up a legit point about options....    I would say it could be up to each user to determine how they desire to store it. Just a few ideas: 1.   Put tamper tape over the words, then store it in a secure/safe location. 2.   Use 2 plates, face to face, or back to back, and then put tamper tape, which would prevent someone from identifying the letters through the tape, if that's what the concern could be. I have not experimented with the tape...  However, each person is going to have a different set of security requirements based on how they are storing the seeds.  If you live alone with your family on an island in the middle of the ocean, probably some Titanium would be great, but no need for tape, since there's nobody else but the family.  However, most people do not have this type of scenario.  Having the words exposed on the plate is unique to each user, in the method it is stored.   If it's in a vault, or buried 20 feet, or stashed...   A tamper evident tape might be helpful to proove nobody else that might have had access, didn't look at it.  However, it's all unique for everyone, and nothing is fool proof, hacker proof, or wrench proof.  It's just a matter of how far someone really wants to go, how many levels, how many lists of passwords must one make...  It could be like the movie the National Treasure, a clue leading to another clue and it'll take 15 generations to find your seed plate...   It also depends how organized and clean and clutter free someone is...  If a place looks like a dump with stuff everywhere, pack rats, well good luck finding something that's secret!  Security by obscurity works good in situations like that..    If it's magazine picture perfect like Architectural Digest, well maybe a few extra layers won't hurt.  But it's unique to each persons comfort/wants/needs.
