The case is easy:

1. It's more expensive to do the same amount of app development with HTML/Canvas/SVG - because of all the hacks you need (more dev hours).
2. It won't work in every browser the same way - if at all in some browsers.
3. It will probably not be as polished, though it may load faster on initial load (critical concern in some areas). 4. The browser with the biggest market share still does not support most of HTML5, and will not support enough of it any time soon, to make certain things even possible - and is expensive to develop for. 5. HTML apps will not currently scale as well as Flash/Flex RIAs will, when they start to get robust.

All this HTML 5 talk is getting obnoxious - how long before the industry remembers why we are all on Flash to begin with?

Now, if you are able to target HTML5 exclusively (iPad/iPhone exclusive web app), heck just take the work. ;-)
