I think it's reasonable to assume that Adobe wants to kill Flash on GNU/Linux, but can't yet do it for Chrome due to some engagement with Google. If this is really their intent, they are going to have much more trouble justifying a kill operation on other platforms.

I forsee a slow and painful death for Flash.

It's only been about a year since the flash plugin started assuming any sort of stability. Did Adobe just find Linux too hard to implement on?

Given that it took them something like 5 years to make a 64-bit version, I would imagine that Flash is such a mass of spaghetti code that, yes, they did find Linux too hard.
