It's not your terminology that I found childish & trollish; it was the comparison of Flash to a fractal generator along with an all-too-obvious deviation from the original point, i.e. a straw man* It's not a lack of plugin support that prevents Flash from working on iOS. It's strictly business rules (which was the point of the article). Your first comment makes hay over the former and your second comment dismisses the latter. * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strawman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strawman "A straw man argument is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position. To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by substituting a superficially similar yet weaker proposition (the "straw man"), and refuting it, without ever having actually refuted the original position."
