One of my family members has a PS5, & it doesn't show transfer speed on screen when copying to external, so I'm using Series X as a reference. You can expect to transfer a 50GB game (either direction) in around 10-15 minutes.
If you have gigabit internet, it's a wash. If you live in a smaller city & only have 25/50/100Mbps internet, it's definitely worthwhile to save a copy of ALL games to your external drive, so you wouldn't have to redownload from the internet if your console failed. I always make an extra copy of the games on the internal storage just for that reason.
