If there are 12 words in the seed phrase, is confirming random 3 words enough to ensure user has backed up all words?

Or is it necessary to confirm all words and in the correct order?

seed-words

confirm-seed

If I create a new wallet it would ask me for other 3 words:

confirm-seed

  • imo best option is to confirm all 12 words - I do not understand how checking just 3-4 as link above recommends is enough – scagbackbone Jan 21 '22 at 11:42
