...on getting that same application into end-users hands. What do you think would
happen to the opt-in creation of Fedora Flatpaks if you get none of the benefits
of being able to empower upstream with maintaining that package?

That doesn't seem to require the Flatpaks to be build from binary RPMs, or RPMs
at all. The Fedora/RHEL runtime is part of the OS, so no duplication of work,
but packaging application-supporting libraries would be.
