Re: Siverlight worked great during the Olympics; why switch?
The olympics were not restricted to Silverlight at all. There was a fallback experience, so the argument doesn't hold.
If I had to guess I'd say:
1. This decision was made long before the olympics (project funding, planning and then dev just don't happen in 2-3 weeks)
2. Probably some heavy pushing from Adobe on this. Other blog posts hint at that and the disappointment Adobe had in not being used for the Olympics
