boooo, James wants in!!! at least you got a reply back and dropped the -is_loading. The overlay is OK but… what if your RG gets uber duber huuuuuuge and takes 2.0000000009+ secs to load, your left hanging 
That right, when it gets massive this workaround will not work. This is actually a big issue, because more less repeating groups are the most usable element, especially on mobile apps. I believe this is not easy fix, but adequate “is loading” which also can be used without refreshing page would be more then enough, just for now.
Ah ok, I read your post as a rebuttal of oleksiy saying there are limitations in bubble’s design capabilities. My bad.

I’ve yet to explore it fully but from an initial ‘fiddle’ as per your post above, I could not get the desired results so left it in the cavity of despair.

let you off 
haha cheers
I agree with you here. Bubble just has a learning curve when it comes to responsiveness. However, making three column section responsive in Bubble is still a challenge
