Yeah, I am obviously biased because I am a Red Hat employee but the truth is the Flatpak model makes a lot of sense for large desktop applications (LibreOffice, OBS, etc.) that anyway do Windows releases and therefore have to track vulnerabilities in their dependencies and release updates.
It may take a while to get used to it, but Red Hat has done a lot of infrastructure work to make this sandboxing possible (in RPM ostree, Flatpak, GTK+/GLib, PipeWire and many more places) and it's not a bad thing if they decide that the work is mature enough for them to reap the benefits.
