The Repeating Shot Infusion would have allowed me to ignore the Loading property without needing to take Crossbow Expert and since the Steel Companion requires a bonus action to command every turn it meant that even if I had taken Crossbow Expert I still wouldn't be able to leverage it to make bonus action attacks with a hand crossbow.

The limb tips of this magic bow are shaped like a dragon’s wings, and the weapon is infused with the essence of a chromatic, gem, or metallic dragon’s breath. For reference, Dragonwing bows do the following: Recently was going through Fizban's again and noticed that Dragonwing bows can be Heavy Crossbows.
