Are AO systems Obsolete?

Recent developments with so called "lucky imaging" software and cameras such as the ASI1600mm for DSO imaging, which are offering some initial impressive results have got me wondering if moving optics surfaces (ala AO) has any sort of future, at least in so far as imaging is concerned? Why mess about with relatively slow moving optical surfaces when you can simply discard an image that is out of bounds in a stack of video frames? What do you think?
