"What you're referring to is bloated microsites that went overboard on k-weight." Well.. yes, because that was what Flash sites were mostly used for. Yes, it didn't have to be uses for that - but it was mostly used for needless crap. I mean, that makes sense because if you didn't want the useless fancy crap you wouldn't have been using Flash in the first place. It's even in the name of the program.

Guess what - most Javascript pages don't need that. Most Flash apps didn't either - but it was still used a bunch. You're making my point for me while arguing against something I've not said.
