I don't think that "some apps have lots of holes punched in the sandbox, but can be locked down easily using a GUI tool, where the majority are indeed locked down" can reasonably be compared to the distro packages that are never run in sandboxes and cannot be locked down in the same way. By that logic we should remove all distro applications because they can't be locked down or sandboxed by the user in any meaningful way. As the person who's been driving AppStream to make desktop applications easier to install on Linux for the last decade (!) I can tell you that flatpaks are in almost all cases what users should be using. By any metric (e.g. live updates, portals, sandboxing, per-user/per-system) they blow apps-as-packages out of the water. Use packaged versions of your apps if you want to, but please don't veto a feature that 99.99% of Fedora users categorically should be using.
