But why use Trezor Suite if you have Sparrow? I'm confused.
I see avoidance of single points of failure one of the key aspects of hardware wallets and to not use the hardware wallet provider's companion app is important to remove the provider as single point of failure. Yes, Trezor firmware is reproducible and has many eyes on the code as there are many clones but nobody would be in a better position to know about flaws exploitable by companion software than the provider itself and the companion software - Trezor Suite in this case - has nowhere near as many eyes on the code as the firmware. Therefore I don't use it and wish Sparrow would rather facilitate updating the Trezor firmware which sadly is something that I still do with the Trezor Suite.
