He's simply incorrect about Flash not working well. It works just fine.

I'm sure he could find a $40 Android Tracfone, or a $59 tablet, with 1GB 
of ROM and a slow CPU, where Flash is flaky.

It was back in the day of Froyo (2010), when hardware was much slower, 
that Flash didn't work well, which is why Google removed it from the 
Chrome browser for Android. With Ice Cream Sandwich and greater the 
hardware was fast enough for Flash to run perfectly.

On any current mid-range to high-end phone or tablet Flash is not a 
problem. Software decoding does require a lot of CPU cycles, so it does 
drain the battery faster, but there are many apps that have high battery 
drain, so that's a senseless excuse to not provide functionality.
