Not relevant. Silverlight is shipped by the same company and provides the same capabilities with no significant differences/restrictions

> - i dont recall silverlight is included in IE either.

Not relevant either, silverlight is shipped by Microsoft and some microsoft websites prompt for its installation, so Microsoft as a company does not seem to have much problem with Silverlight and its 3D capabilities.

read the related Ms article "WebGL considered harmful". there its stated that they wont include it in BROWSER beacause it is considered harmful. so silverlight is not include either. even if it is exactly the same as WebGL

But they were pointing out that what WebGL does would never pass their security reviews. This isn't even the IE team from my understanding but the security team at Mircosoft making this statement. I'm sure they work on multiple projects.
