Flash was never a web standard, there weren't enough independent implementations, it was proprietary only, and it had mountains of security issues. I agree with trying to not break the web, but the death of Flash on the web was great, and the only tragedy is that there's still not a great, reasonable FOSS solution for running arbitrary swf files offline.
