I read somewhere that Adobe outsourced all their development sometime around 2005. By the time they needed to pivot and make it lean, they didn't have the knowledge anymore. I don't know how true this is though. It was also a memory hog and wouldn't run well on a first generation iPad. Jobs used H.264 for video and it ran much better than Flash.
