Hi Mike, Java developers ask this all the time...
The reason *I* develop for flash is precicely because of its consistency. Apart from between versions (and even that is handled quite well) we can be abount 99% confident that things will work across the board, with a little testing. Also, Flash is seen as being more wdiely deployed than Java. Of course, if there were different flavours of flash, and flash lost that, we'd be in a situation where Java/Javascript would start to have some clear advantages.
