By having her input seed words into an internet connected device you are teaching her bad habits that could lead her to losing her stack in the future. Jade is a fairly low cost hw device that I have found to be fairly approachable for newbies.
Like you said, security setup can evolve over time but I think it’s probably best to set her up with simple good habits. Props to you for helping her learn! And I don’t think there is one right answer here.
Entirely true, the bad habit is a big point and indeed, the debate for the right way to onboard is still raging :D

Also works with sparrow, which is desktop. Just needs an nfc reader.
By the time you add in cost of card and reader you might as well go for a proper hw signer
