I wouldn't say anything about advantages/recommend as regards snaps. For instance, as regards VLC I have observed two significant bugs with the snap: 1. Translations don't work, and 2. Capturing a stream to a file doesn't work either.

To be honest it makes little sense to me to show both alternatives in Ubuntu Software. And prioritizing buggy snaps isn't exactly user friendly.

Besides that I agree on your approach.
