No, that's not the problem. Remember, developers are a minority, users are the majority, so making things work well for users takes priority over making things work well for developers. When functionality that's useful for webapps is misused for websites where it has no place and where it breaks the user experience, the only way to improve things for users is to make things harder for developers.

developers make the things the majority use, if you make things worse for developers they have a harder time making things that work well for the user, when that happens they will look to misuse functionality to improve things for their users. The only way to improve things for users is to make things easier for developers.
There are good developers who try to improve things for their users. There are also many developers who don't and ruin it for the rest.

Do they earn 30% from HTML5 apps?
When will we ever have HTML5 apps that match native apps? When they actually let HTML5 apps do what native apps do, like multitouch without triggering a default action.
