The main difference between native SVG implementation and native area
implementation (map/area scenario lets you small room for maneuvering, so
it's native anyway) is

One of the 2 objections, I'd say. But the second is probably a matter of
implementation.
SVG makes it unclear what's the actual active area when navigating through
tab key.
