The problem I had with flatpak is that I needed to screw with a lot of individual apps anyway, and the containerization was a headache. It took up a lot of ssd space too, and in some cases, performance is an issue and I’d prefer system packages.
I think my biggest issue that flat pack could alleviate is system python updating and me having to redo my venvs, but I probably need to do that anyway…
I've had zero issues with containerization or disk space personally.
