Flexbox and grid might not be compatible with your customers browsers

It's unlikely that's the case unless you're in a weird niche where people use ancient tech though. Both flexbox and grid have been available since IE10, albeit in a slightly different form prior to Edge.

I happily write flexbox layout code in particular that works everywhere without any changes necessary for old browsers.

Polyfills probably are.

Flexbox and grid are very hard to polyfill since they are deeply embedded in the layout engine.

The only flexbox polyfills are Javascript based and really slow.

AFAIK there is no up to date / usable Grid polyfill.
