You really think people equate crypto wallets with physical wallets, more than they do bank accounts? Not sure I agree. I think it would be much better if they did equate it with a wallet. An account can be recovered if lost, a wallet cannot. Wallet encourages better behavior security wise IMO.
I think you're grasping at straws with the coins thing..you really think there's an attempt to confuse people into thinking that it's..physical coins?
From my experience, most people are left in disbelief when you tell them that the bitcoins they own are not in their wallet. It reflects a deep lack of understanding of how bitcoin works. I don't think misunderstanding how a financial product works is a good thing. Whereas, again, from my experience, bank accounts are well understood. People are fully aware that their funds are not being kept in a box in the bank's vault, and no one tries to convince them of the contrary either.
