I think it was Nikon who said that the built-in flash restricts the size of the pentaprism, and if they don't see a need for a pop-up, they rather make a full use of the space for a better finder. However, they are somehow a believer of the pop-up and it is a matter of balance between the pentaprism space and pop-up. I think the pro level camera has much larger prism and adding a built-in anything there is impossible anyway. The usefulness of the built-in flash is a matter of opinion and how people actually use it. If it's only for the beginners, makers, certainly Nikon, would completely eliminate it except for the entry level bodies.
