Not addressing Flask directly but the article made me think of something about small web frameworks. It strikes me as easier to come up with a new "big" web framework than it is with a new small one. Because after a certain point, its hard to come up with a framework where a Hello World web app can be expressed with any fewer lines of code. It's always possible to make a more verbose web app, it may be impossible past a certain point to make one more concise. Perhaps Flash's angle could be not to shrink the minimum LOC needed, but to deliver more features per app LOC.
