[question] hard dependency on flash/actionscript? #1

I was wondering if Flash is a hard dependency. Has Bethesda implemented a Flash player inside the game or is it more of a Android webviewer that is used. In case it's the second, wouldn't it make sense to do the UI in html,css, js, svg? With CSS grid, webcomponents and wasm that looks like a more future proof direction.

from searching old blog posts I could deduce that Bethesda was using Scaleform (Autodesk) to implement the UI. I guess Flash is a hard dependency. Both Flash and Scaleform have been deprecated.
