So if people want to post a video of their cat in their blog, they must encode it in 2-3 different formats, and use an HTML5 video player with a fallback to a Flash video player ... as opposed to a single video file and a single Flash player.

Unless those people who own cats are all Richard Stallman impersonators, I don't see how that makes any logical sense.
