Why is it arrogant? Surely "my site won't work with your browser settings" is not inherently an argument that I have to change my browser settings!

I mean, you can say "by browsing with JavaScript off, you kill the rich web", but I can also say "by refusing to make available a plain-text version of your site, you kill the information web" (with whatever appropriate buzzwords substituted for my ungainly ones). Many of the same arguments here could, I think, have explained why Flash is absolutely necessary for the modern web—until Apple's weight showed that it isn't.
