Because HTML5 is horrible to use as a rendering technology regardless of browser issues. It is simply the wrong tool for the job. It makes no sense to convert everything back to a form (HTML) that poorly expresses what you want to do. The internet is full of “How can a get a layout like this…?” questions with regard to HTML. Followed by hack upon hack to try to make it work. If you use a proper GUI toolkit instead of a mutilated mark-up language, you just do it.
