I had a quick look at the Upswing "Guide to playing flush draws", or whatever it was called, about 9 months ago. In my opinion, it was a pretty accurate set of guidelines that matches solver output in a general sense. It's (much) more up to date than any of the old poker books that had chapters about how to play draws.

Does it?
On the river, it's often the case that ace high is "too good" to put into a bluffing range, as ace high has some showdown value. Missed flush draws often
don't make good river bluffs (because you want villain to be folding his own missed FDs). It obviously depends upon the board texture and the situation, but more commonly, you'd bluff with hands with better blockers and
no showdown value. e.g. A missed jack-high gutshot.
