Just when I was getting a really firm grip on Flexbox... now Grid is becoming usable everywhere.

I shouldn't be complaining, this fast pace of adopting useful tools is a paradise compared to the stagnation we had 5-15 years ago.

Don't fret: they're actually very complementary. I often use flexbox for arranging content within Grid cells.

This is a big thing people don't always get at first with Grid. It only replaces Flexbox where Flexbox was being used in a convoluted way to imitate what Grid does. It doesn't replace the more "natural" use of Flexbox to control the direction, spacing, and sizing of what for want of a better term I'll call "things in lines that may wrap".
