Why do you need Flatpak for sandboxing?
I really dislike Flatpak for installing multiple identical copies of the dependencies.
Just give me some easier to use tools to configure the access that each application has.

You don't, but as far as I know, Flatpak or Snap are the only practical, low-effort ways to do it on standard distros. There's nothing stopping flatpak-like security from being combined with traditional package management and shared libraries. Perhaps we will see this in the future, but I don't see much activity in this area at the moment.
