- Always available over my network/wireguard without touching the phone or a cable. Wireless ADB over a tcp socket technically works but requires a USB cable to bootstrap when you use the phone as a hotspot like I do, nor would I dare open it up to the internet.
- Any number of SFTP clients rather than the limited ADB options
- Higher throughput than wired ADB (at least on my Pixel 6A over USB)
- I want ssh access to my termux environment anyway so may as well use it for file transfers too.
I only really use adb for app development, maybe the odd nslookup or android package management with `pm`

Also this lets you run script on your real device instead of the chroot thing of termux which can be helpful (e.g. accessing /data/data stuff which is a pain with termux, not sure if its even possible).
And my last reason is just that why would I need a separate app that I need to configure when I can just have a real ssh server
