apart from running under confinement (so a malicious mail attachment

you are not bound to the ubuntu archive with snaps or even the
underlying distro release, so updates can roll in at a way faster pace
which is a real advantage for any third party out-of-distro software. 

i.e. TB 79.x.x will likely show up as a snap long before hitting the
archive (if it gets updated in 20.10 at all, typically only LTS
releases see such updates).
