Basically title.

I’m wondering if a package manager like flatpak comes with any drawback or negatives. Since it just works on basically any distro. Why isn’t this just the default? It seems very convenient.

You can, infact there's outright a mesa git runtime one can add, i don't imagine too many systems roll so fast as to outpace it https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/available-runtimes.html
