Agreed, the current state is such that many developers either rely on package managers for auto-updates (thus lacks sandboxing anyway) or use Snap (which is usually similarly not sandboxed and you have to put your trust in some proprietary cloud platform to push code to your computer). Just getting devs to support Flatpak is an effort, but once that's done sandboxing can be worked on later.
