Please, formulate your question clearly. I answered, but absolutely not sure what you're really interested in, just share my experience and opinion in those flowcharts.

I am sorry if I'm answering wrong question. Your idea does not look clear at all.
Nevertheless, I can answer more general question: "Is Microsoft Visual Studio flowchart (and diagramming in general) a flexible and versatile tool?".

I gave up — decided all Visual Studio diagramming completely useless.

I do not need diagramming to manage my projects manually; I feel confident without it. I need diagramming to communicate architecture with the team, but for this purpose I need all graphics to be exported into editable vector graphics, to name just the bare minimum requirement. I found it is impossible. I also wanted to get more standard look of traditional UML.

Microsoft Visual Studio diagramming does not go in this direction. Therefore I consider all this as a useless toy. Yes, it can help to generate code, but I don't appreciate this.

This is my opinion, but it is based on some experiments and comparisons. I see no use. You may want to take it into account.
