Why use subsonic ammo and a silencer (suppessor)?

Isn’t it like belt and suspenders?

No. The suppressor quiets the muzzle blast from the gun. Subsonic ammo doesn't create the sonic "crack" sound of supersonic ammo.

Then why not use supersonic ammo with a silencer? Isn’t it all about em vee square?
