Summary
LaunchDarkly is good at feature management, but there are certain situations where using feature flags may not be beneficial. These include using API secrets as flag variations, relying on flag values for configuration needed at startup, putting the feature flag directly in the functionality, and using them for email blasts. In these cases, other tools or methods should be considered instead of feature flags.
