What happens if Trezor, Ledger ect wont exist anymore?
You can even create your own hardware wallet if you want (https://seedsigner.com/) (https://github.com/cryptoadvance/specter-diy)

This is completely insane. I don't think people realise how incredible this is. Bitcoins works.
You can build your own hardware wallet using SpecterDIY or SeedSigner . Both are great projects but I enjoy Specter the most.

Why does everybody trust wallets so much?
Alternatively you can purchase multiple devices from different manufacturers and create a multisig wallet that requires multiple signatures from multiple devices. Wallet software like Specter-Desktop can help you with this. They also have a DIY signer https://github.com/cryptoadvance/specter-diy

Best way to get a few megabytes of data from an airgapped machine
I don't know how useful this would be for your situation, but I recall seeing txqr which is basically a animated qr code for higher information density.

Transfer Data with Animated QR codes
There have been studies about this and one of them has stood out which is TXQR. It uses fountain codes to add redundancy to the data so that skipping a few frames will not affect the reading. It uses a repeated codes mode before turning to fountain codes. The program is implemented in Go.

Is something like encrypting an image to Qrcode even possible
Related to this one, some time ago I came across this one https://github.com/divan/txqr
What are some alternatives?
When comparing specter-diy and txqr you can also consider the following projects:
seedsigner - Use an air-gapped Raspberry Pi Zero to sign for Bitcoin transactions! (and do other cool stuff)
TXQR-Android - Based off of the principles in https://github.com/divan/txqr
QRCodeGenerator - A QR code generator written in pure Swift. Unlike Apple's built-in APIs for QR code generation, this package allows more sophisticated and tunable encoding techniques.
