My main reason is that HTML is good at its job...

* Separates meaning from style (via CSS etc)
* Very easy to hand code in an editor
* Worldwide standard

Against that backdrop, what would be the compelling reason to have a
website *exclusively* built with SVG? Obviously SVG is good for the
images, and for links in the images if that can be done, and video,
etc, but I'm not sure why one would forgo the ease and adaptability of
HTML.

By the way, I'm starting to use SVG images on my websites. Often direct
from Inkscape, with the Inkscape metadata still in them. They render
well with all my browsers (but I don't use IE). See this:
