Using custom obscure derivation path for wallet address safer?

Etherum Reddit

As stated in the title, I just wanted to ask if people think its safer to choose a wallet address that is created from a lesser known derivation path or completely custom (if possible).My thinking is that if my seed is exposed, when the hacker tries to import my wallet he wouldn't even see the address of my funds because most apps use paths like "m’/44’/60’/0’/0" or "m’/44’/60’/0" and therefore it wouldn't show up, being harder for him/her to steal my funds due to them also having to know the specific derivation path.

Im not a coder or anything so if theres some app that searches for all addresses with a balance in it using your private key/seed phrase or if there is only a small number of derivation paths to choose from then this idea is out the window.

Wanted to get your guys thoughts, Cheers
