I agree with those theories, which is why I think hAxe is a promising technology going forward – program in an OOP way very similar to AS3 and yet export to Javascript/HTML5.

Maybe people hate the things we create with Flash, such as heavyweight advertisements you can't easily stop - but that's the programmers fault.

Personally, I am interested in educational applications, so AS3 is great: very powerful with amazing potential. Just look at what Away3D manage to do: http://away3d.com/showcase/

LOL, looks beautiful, runs like a dog on my laptop. As you might guess, my laptop is not a current speed machine.
