who said anything about NEED...let's talk about WANT. I would like a CSS file to do the lion share of my formatting for me. Big benefit. Unfortunately, the support sucks in Flash. It's amazingly useful. I don't want to have to hand-code all my text formatting because CSS isn't supported well. This is a serious deficiency. If they are going to support it at all, they should at least do it justice, or not even bother. Right now, it's the illusion of support.
