Perhaps, but despite of all its issues, JSmol
- works reasonably well on computers not supporting webgl (probably not 
important for those concentrating on US, but I imagine in the rest of the 
world people still may use oldish computers and buying a modern one is not 
an option), 
- is consistent between different browsers and platforms (I am yet to see 
it produce different output for the same code, while three.js keeps 
surprising me, like today it just stopped working in Firefox for no clear 
reason),
- has no problems with partially transparent surfaces,
- has no issues with lines of fixed width,
- is the prettiest plotter available in Sage.
