With hooks you are able to render your html server side while still having some js functionality. Technically you can also render server side with LiveSvelte as it supports SSR out of the box, but this SSR uses Node and that introduces a slight performance decrease (around 3ms I believe).

I've been looking at Bun to see if it would help but it's still unclear to me.

Heex rendering is just way faster.

If you don't care about SSR for certain components (for example modals, they don't need SSR generally), then I don't see a clear advantage for hooks.
