Residential fire sprinkler systems are designed for one purpose; life safety. In short, to make sure your family gets out of the house. While they may suppress a fire, I wouldn't rely on them in a SHTF scenario.
Better to have and not need than need and not have. 30 seconds of cover fire when exiting the home is better than no cover fire. Having a pressurized system might be a deciding factor. Again, each to their own.
