everything created with flash can be created with other web languages and technologies and they will have better performance and less security vulnerabilities.
Also Adobe themselves are dropping the support for Flash and won't be releasing any further updates after the deadline.

From what I've seen, that's true for video. However, its the opposite for games. Games that have been converted to HTML5 that I've seen are much lower quality than the original flash, and the emulator will preserve some of the older games that are too hard to convert or are just forgotten, which is something that a lot of gamers want to happen.

for a decent Javascript developer it is not hard to make the same game, at least it has future..
as you mentioned, that emulator is only good for forgotten and abandoned games.
