Go download a wallet that wasn't the wallet you created the original wallet from and try to backup with it.
Go try it. Find your wallet in this list: https://walletsrecovery.org/
Then, pick another wallet that doesn't have the same derivation path. I'm not saying do it with your main stack, or even a wallet that has Bitcoin in it. Just try it with a wallet that had Bitcoin in it and you'll find that you can't get your wallet history or even the same Bitcoin addresses to show up.
Not really an argument to be had. Its a technical reality.

Ah, you essentially only have to use a wallet that also supports the same derivation path, other then that, it's simply words + passphrase, correct?

Yes.
The simplest thing is to remember what wallet and version you generated your seed phrase with. The next simplest thing is to write down the derivation path. It's not even that long, only as long as a calendar date really.
