I don’t know about morality, but my view is that it’s part of the deal with free software: users can do what they want with it. If you willingly make your software free, that’s what you signed up for. In return, the devs have no obligations to listen to users or do anything they don’t want. If they only want to fix bugs in the flatpak, fine, that’s their choice. It’s their software, we’re all free to work on or use it as we want.
TBH I don’t have strong opinion where the boundaries of FOSS are. But I can understand their will to minimize effort where you see it fits as an engineer. If they think they lack of manpower to do something, it’s their vision as they put work towards it. We can help if we like, agree, disagree or ignore. Does not make sense to blame them though, that was the point of my first comment.
