Agreed.

Adobe, for all of its warts, is supported for a significant amount of back-end functionality that organizations like the IRS use for forms.

Additionally, it actually is Section 508 compliant, meaning that the forms and PDFs can be used with accessibility software, which is good if you're blind.

Foxit is nice, and so are other programs like Preview on OS X, but Adobe does have a significant amount of functionality that banks, the US Government, and people with disabilities need.
