Well... that depends. If you can just use the browser already installed, yeah, but then you have to deal with cross-browser (which is still a thing, like I did a wysiwyg editor for work that is a redistributable server exe they run locally, but the ui is in a browser. You get better results on firefox than chrome due to a bunch of little things.)
Same with deprecation. Web stuff breaks somewhat frequently, and new features requiring bleeding edge won't always be there.
