Browsers are already easily themed, have plenty of tools to change deeper functionality, and are way more sandboxed than any other app packaging ecosystem.

so problems from programs that don’t support flatpak, not flatpak fault, because everything you said is supported
this isn’t even caused by flatpak, it’s the app fault
