Purely from a sound perspective, a model of this amp through a FRFR speaker versus this amp, would there be a difference?

My tube amps don't sound better than my modelers. They "feel" different. More touch-sensitive. I use both, depending on what my ear feels like hearing. One isn't better than the other, they're just different. Anyone who tries to tell you one is "better" isn't being intellectually honest.
What if I had to pick? I'd pick a modeler, just because of the variety at hand with one.
That said, unless you really know why you would want this particular amp, don't buy it. It's a single-purpose modeler, which in my mind is the worst combination of "real" amp and modeler. A person might have a very specific reason for buying it and find it very satisfying for that particular reason.

As the tech progresses it's interesting to see the shift in the mindset of "this sounds like crap" to "wait, I couldn't tell?"

There are people who swear they can hear the difference in different MP3 bit rates. Well, good for them, if they actually can. Same for things like modelers. I think that becomes particularly true the more complicated a signal chain is.

It does sound a little better than my line 6 helix run through and FRFR on Deluxe Reverb setting but really not a whole heck of a lot. As one person said above it does one thing so unless you're using it as a pedal platform it has very little versatility. You can get 90% of this for 350 for a line 6 pod go and 300 for and FRFR and have literally a million other options.

That, and the ability to play at bedroom levels without needing an attenuator, with just a flip of a knob....

I agree and the millon other options comes in handy when you have a large guitar collection with different pickups. I originally thought I didn't like certain amps, but when paired with the right guitar, I ate my words.

Oh and tubes are a bit more touch sensitive; but some (non-tube units) are caught up (close enough) with touch also. The circuit(s) is the tone(and cover variations).
And tubes can be repaired. I recommend a mix. Even for lower total cost. AKA best value. ...Million ways to do it though. None wrong.
Weight?
And different version updates of this.
Does Fender have a track record of supporting their amps as years go by, standing behind their product? Nope.
