3. We have field level controls. For example, some data in the google sheet can be read-only while others are read & write
4. It's at least twice the work (often more!) to set up and manage two pipelines instead of one -- almost like having one email address for sending emails and another for receiving them
5. Airbyte does not support transformations for G Sheets currently, whereas with Bracket you can write a SQL query to transform your data from Postgres to Sheets
