 Currently (as of Feb 19 2021) latest.zip still contains the following
 string in \wordpress\wp-includes\script-loader.php


 {{{
 'mejs.install-flash'       => __( 'You are using a browser that does not
 have Flash player enabled or installed. Please turn on your Flash player
 plugin or download the latest version from
 https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/' )
 }}}

 Since Adobe now has officially killed this product, it's pointless to ask
 anyone to install it.

 I understand that there probably is some functionality hidden behind this
 message, so it's not totally trivial. But it really would be good to
 remove this before version 5.7 ships.
