I'm aware of the nuances but agree that it is not a simple matter of two (or more) competing technologies.

The question still remains "What type of experience do you want your audience to have, and what types of technologies can provide that, at what total cost?" (No big thing, but generic binary phrases like "has SVG support" have tripped people up for years.) For Apple, who knows? They don't speak clearly, and seem to be working to make their own controllable "universal runtime" in WebKit. Small marketshare, although popular among English-language influentials. jd/adobe Hi Tim, that phrase “standard HTML and JavaScript” technology describes a specification, and the implementations still differ, as well as their general capabilities.
