Oh humbug! I don't see any excuse for lazy users not be using Flash.

  That's not the point. Installing Flash player is, of course, very easy to do; it's just that doing so comes only at the cost of slightly decreased security and stability. Of course, Adobe could have avoided these issues, had they only chosen to release Flash player under an open source license. At this point it's simply legacy software being phased out in favor of HTML5, and is mostly just a nuisance. Thankfully, ever since Youtube released their HTML5 player, I can't think of a single time in which I was denied access to critically important content because it was locked inside a SWF.
