Factory reset is factory reset so you lose all your modifications

Both Tabs have same SuperSU. Sony Tablet S have never loose Root by Factoring Reset. After Factory Reset. Reinstall SuperSu from Playstore and Ready. Root Work Perfectly.

Have now tested. Make SuperSU to System App with SD2Link App on my Xperiza Z4. After Facroy Reset the SuperSU app is not gone. The Root rights are gone,

SuperSU App say. "Missing SuperSu Files. Can not Installing. Is a Problem"

I See Root are more as the SuperSu App and Kernel.

apparently is different Methods for Root by the two tabs.

Ok,
Under SuperSU -> parameters-> System, is the "Install SuperSU in /system" is grayed on the two tablet ?
Which OS version have you on the two tablet ?
I have another tablet "Acer A3-A20FHD KK 4.4.2" with the same version of SuperSU v2.76 but SuperSU is installed in /system so I think it depends on the version of the OS

Xperia is grayed out
Sony Tablet S not grayed out

by the Sony Tab S install SuperSU form App Store work. Xperia not work from App Store.

Tablet S have Android 4.0.3 / SuperSu 2.76 / Factory Image
Xperia have 6.0.1 / SuperSu 2.76 / AndoidKernel Plus

Install SuperSu over TWRP must be more Files installing for Root whos ist gone bei Factory Reset.

The Thing is. Is it Possible install ALL Files make root possible to the System Area on the Xperia Z4 Tab?

On xperia SuperSu is installed in systemless mode
For the last question post on the thread for SuperSU
but I do not see what the problem, install SuperSU via TWRP is very easy . I do it every time i update AndroPlus kernel

The Question is

I don't undastand the purpose of theme. Of course, all apps removed after factory reset, but such things as supersu, xposed, remained in the system. Wanna get back root back? Install SuperSU apk or flash it through twrp, you may also reflash kernel. That's all.

Me too i don't understand because i never make a factory reset on this tablet. And reinstall SuperSu is not a problem for me
But on MM SuperSU is not installed in /system (systemless root) it's installed in /su/bin so it doesn't survive to factory reset.
