Simplified integration I would say is the main one. Obviously you can integrate with php using a middle layer such as XML but the ease of working with native objects such as record set objects returned from CFCs blows this away.
I'd look at raw performance, Flash uses AMF to connect which is much lighter than encoding your data up from the database using XML and then parsing that. So performance is certainly the main one. Outside of data integration you can of course take advantage of the cfc architecture both ways. So pulling data is easy in flash with XML but pushing it back to php is more complex, you can can of course post the data or do a geturl but if you say wanted to save a recordset back to the server you would need to parse it up into some xml or textdelimited format and post it back rather than simply using remoting.
