Being a binary blob is not a strong argument all by itself. chrome.exe, firefox.exe, etc. are also binary blobs. I have no love for Adobe, but that specific criticism is weak.

I think there's a difference between a single-install binary blob to run the entire browser, and a binary blob required to view a single website in the browser. But I don't think it's a huge difference, for sure.
