Scott,
Seriously? Microsoft use Flash all over their sites, and there is a very good reason. It's because the one thing that Flash does that Silverlight can't is reach 98% of people. Sparkle has a lot of catching up to do before Microsoft can use it main stream.

There is nothing in this site that can't be done in Silverlight. That being said, I don't have an official reason for the use of Flash inside this site, suffice to say it was most likely an agency decision with whom we outsource the creative to, and not ours.

While Flash is on Version 9, Silverlight still hasn't got the coverage (or perhaps features the MS designers want) ... yet. in other words you're talking about today, but not necessarily tomorrow. May the best tool win.
