And a level 3 rogue really isn't much of a rogue at all. The only positive I can see is if you take rogue as your first class at level 1 you can gain a lot skill profficiencies for a more effective skill monkey but that's about it. But yeah...not great for gameplay. I'd rather stick to pure rogue or pure sorcerer and leave what you can do to another class. The positive is both Rogue and Sorcerer are great face classes in their own rights and being the face of the party is the only role companions can't properly fill.

Thief gets 2 bonus actions. Metamagic allows for spell casting as bonus actions. This build could cast 3 spells a turn and do cool things like Misty Step twice in one turn. It’s a good build idea.
Yeah but you're also giving up spell slots and spells by giving up 3 levels of sorcerer as well as you get capped to one level lower of spells. So 3 spells per turn sounds great but you do give up a lot of other stuff for them and you burn through your fewer spell slots faster.

Yup. That’s the cost. The benefit is much high spike damage.
