I totally agree. It sounds to me like "web developers" just do not want to branch out. They want to do everything in the web.
I have designed desktop applications for years and the interactivity and responsiveness is well beyond what the web can offer. With new deployment methods like Click-Once or even Silverlight the web (HTML, AJAX, JS) is a very bad idea for application development.
This is possible, but how many valid javascript programs are 1024 characters or less?
A very large amount!
Checking each if it followed the predefined rules would be time consuming.
For instance, in Pacman, you might have to have the computer play a full game to check if the rules are met.
I actually want the rich people to have a lot of money.
Every job I have ever had, 10+, was created because some rich person needed my skills.
Without rich people where would we be?

Almost all the programs would be utter nonsense.
