Why a smart move?
I can see a big advantage in that you don’t coordinate with the same crew that made the device, but what are the big reasons to make the switch?
I ask, as CC is less accessible for a new entrant than a Ledger

Common misconception. It couldn’t be simpler if you follow nostr:npub1rxysxnjkhrmqd3ey73dp9n5y5yvyzcs64acc9g0k2epcpwwyya4spvhnp8 or nostr:npub1ahxjq4v0zlvexf7cg8j9stumqp3nrtzqzzqxa7szpmcdgqrcumdq0h5ech and one of their guides.
A x1 in difficult adjustment to swap our ledger gives you a x10 of knowledge and confidence in your ColdCard device and your ability to self custody and manage it properly.
CC not difficult to use, but the price and way to access CC is the barrier to entry.
Nothing easier than CC & Sparrow, but pricey. If you’re making it your own bank, then you should get steel doors, guards and dogs I know, but is it such a dumb move to go a ledger (top of the funnel as NVK says) before they jump to CC or other?
If your intention is to end up at CC or other, like you say, then why waste time with a company that has floors in its security software. You might as well save that money and put it towards a better device that you intend to keep for the long run.
CC made a device, and that thing is so bullet proof, they put it open source.
Ledger functions, no one knows how.
Ledger is French, Macron could grab you and your seed phrase by the pussy if he wanted.
By the way fuck France.
