This year, we are to call the DEFO the FLEX. Anyway, the FLEX has all of the "freedoms" that every other starter has. The FLEX may play any position defensively, with the limitation that the FLEX may not play ever only offense. It's no different than having F2 & F3 switch positions - they changed defensively but made no change on offense.
Devil's advocate question:
Does "FLEX may not ever play only offense" mean the FLEX position or the player (e.g., #15 who started as FLEX)? IOW, can the #15 start at FLEX, take over the DP slot on the batting order, and then be substituted as FLEX by #30. That would give us #15 as DP and #30 as FLEX.
