On trezor at least (only hw wallet I'm experienced with), there is an option to test your seed phrase without wiping the device. I agree testing on another clean device feels more legit

Thinking we should invent an international 'test your recovery seed phrase' day.

I don't think it needs a test day, but how to recover a wallet is something everyone should have practiced. Because when you need to use this skill, you may be tricked by scammers on the Internet.

But i see (perhaps naively) that more awareness and education benefits everyone.
That is exactly what these international days do. They promote awareness. E.g. world backup day is March 31st.
