Well people still choose bloated and horribly slow text editors and claim they are amazing because zillions of plugins and customizations are available. Websphere was similarly popular because it could integrate with 100s of frameworks that developers/enterprises might be using in their applications. So it still makes sense in same way when now people claim web apps/wrappers are solution to all client side software and if it feels bloated and slow, tough luck, "Why don't you upgrade to some over-spec'd machines?"
