53. I know that.
Reading comprehension limits?

I have a Mac. I blocked it because it was eating up too much processes when I was browsing. Found I can live without it at home, so why would I need it on my phone?

Why? Because when an app, or plug in is bogging a system down, even if it's converted from a plug in (flash) the hardware maker/OS maker gets the blame for it. Apple's biggest selling points are ease of use and speed. If Flash cuts the speed down, and makes the OS prone to crash, like it's responsible for 90% of OSX crashes now, then Apple gets blamed for it, not Adobe. So even a cross-compiler isn't as good as native code, which in the end is to the app maker's advantage because they just wrote a more stable piece of software. Apple is tired of carrying Adobe's water.
