Trubu, the one-button mouse is actually a particularly apt comparison in this case.

In 2003, Jobs insisted that "nobody uses" two buttons, even in Windows, and that users get confused by the two buttons.

In 2007, Jobs insisted that "“Java’s not worth building in. Nobody uses Java anymore. It’s this big heavyweight ball and chain.”

In 2008, Jobs claimed that "nobody reads anymore."

In 2010, "Flash Crashes Macs."

And some taking it as gospel....
