What does that even mean?

Silverlight being better than Flash doesn't logically conclude to making Silverlight a good idea and deserving of support. A lesser evil is still an evil.

I consider the fact that Flash is pretty terrible a feature, as at least is helps discourage people from only using it in places where it's absolutely essential. I firmly believe RIAs are a fundamentally bad idea and the quicker they are replaced with open standards the better.
