I understand the developer may be known and trusted

But I do not have the expertise to do my own thorough code review

If that's of your concern, you can't download the play store version either. It is the same app, has the same signature.

Excuse my ignorance and correct me if I'm wrong

But does the play store not do some sort of scanning itself?

Potentially, but that doesn't really matter, as you can match the signatures of the two versions and see that they are the same. You cannot fake that and have one version have different code, it's not possible.
