How does it stack up against traditional package management and others like AUR and Nix?

Do you have a better approach for running from CLI? Apps need exact names I guess, and the system is exact.

The way we've done it for like 30 years seems to work.

How would you prevent package duplicates when using flatpak and native?

alias "flatpak run org.app.name"=*f-name"

The way it's always been done. Put them in different paths and set priority with the PATH variable.
