Actually, the better question is: When will they replace most desktop Linux programs?

Having to prefix commands with "flatpak run org.whoever.whatever..." gets old quickly, and setting aliases to get around it isn't user friendly. It's certainly possible, it's just not practical (which may have been a better word to use than "feasable" in my first comment).
