that mindset. Though it could also be that web wasn't a very good target in the era when they still cared about Flash.)
I never heard of AS4 before! That's so cool. I found a specification and whitepaper here https://github.com/adobe-research/ActionScript4
It was supposed to be a compiled language, in order to solve performance and battery issues on mobile devices.
Being able to say "we fixed one of your biggest complaints / reasons for trying to kill us" sounds like it would have been pretty good marketing, and Adobe with their budget seems like they could have afforded that easily. (I don't know how much it costs to develop a new programming language, but I know it has often been done by a single person in their spare time!)
