Does Trezor support psbt?
You are asking about whether Trezor Suite supports PSBT format, and the answer is no. There's however several options that do support PSBT and work with Trezor, such as HWI, Electrum, and presumably also Sparrow Wallet itself.

Wasabi doesn't recognize Trezor Model T when trying to add hardware wallet.
If your OS is Linux you need to create a set of udev rules for the hardware wallet to be reachable. The instructions can be found here: https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/blob/master/hwilib/udev/README.md

Multi-sig wallet policies
A partial support was already developed by Andrew Chow in https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI (merged just a few days ago), which will probably be released soon; HWI is used by bitcoin-core and several other software wallets, so that release will already bring an improved support − but support for policy registration will be partial and therefore a bit inconvenient to use.

Is it possible to connect a ledger to bitcoin core?
yes, but you need to use this tool https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI

[How-To] Ways to use 12 word seeds (BIP39) in Bitcoin Core v22.0 (testnet)
This is usually done with HWI. Some people have forked the code and used it in a nice skinned GUI, but I can't recall the name. Maybe someone can post it here. I did it all through command-line and did a fairly detailed writeup. It's pretty easy, just hard to guess the skillset of the reader.

Updated Ledger firmware, now can't sign/send transactions
Yes I've used the official Ledger Live software and tried multiple cables, including 2 different Ledger cables. I just updated the udev rules a la https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/tree/master/hwilib/udev but still nothing. I can see everything in Ledger Live, can activate my Manager, etc, just I can't send anything from Wasabi anymore.

Have I lost my Bitcoin?
Its just well established, open source, well featured. While it is a wallet, here it just plays the role of interface. Yes, there are other apps for this, most notably Sparrow.

Open source wallets
Sparrow has the best UI/UX in my experience, and it's completely open sourced. https://github.com/sparrowwallet/sparrow
