Default HTML5 vs Flash: Which would you choose if you could?

Let's say that you have the choice to pick between the two. What would you use?

CriteriaHTML5 + CSS + JavaScriptAdobe Flash
CompatibilityEmerging standard supported by modern browsers and many mobile browsers; workarounds exist for older browsersTime-tested browser plug-in based rich application that has almost perfect computer support, but spotty mobile support; mobile support EOL
Ease of useEasy to implement for simple tags; advanced apps like games need to have extensive work, has to consider for browser differencesOne size fits all, easy to use and program, but limited choice of tools
PerformanceVery high across all supporting devices; consistency concernsMobile devices may be not up to task for intensive graphics, consistency is very high otherwise
ComplexityCan end up as a mishmash of HTML5, CSS and JavaScript; tag soup may occur if not carefully handledEverything can be done in a Flash authoring application
