What’s with the 2.5.3 firmware update and ZEC unified address support?

From the blog post on the firmware update:

Zcash Unified Address

Trezor Model T firmware now supports the sending of funds to the new Zcash unified address format.

But I still can't send to a unified address:

A ZEC unified address that is claimed to be invalid by Trezor Suite

And the Receive UI in trezor suite doesn't offer a unified address either.

So what is this update really about?
