I think WebFlow is too complex for content editors and... too flexible.
The interface is complex and, when editors learn how padding, margin etc. work, they can use them to change the design, which is something they shouldn't be able to do.
So I think WebFlow is a good aid for web developers, not a tool for content editors.
With React Bricks we give complete flexibility to developers (React code) but good constraints to content editors: you can decide in code what content editors can change, both via direct visual editing and via sidebar controls.
What do you think about it?

great point. I also think it is good (imperative) to keep design-editor and content-editor separate.
