I think the point is that apart from having the person/firms name typed in google, indexing isn't a big deal. Flash is a great way to make highly effective interactive designs. Many big-name NYC design firms have their sites done solely in Flash because of what can be done with it. For artists and designers, I think it's one of the best ways to make a site that is both eye-catching and functional. And for the OP, as grimm said, updating with new work is as simple and adding to the XML and uploading.

For bigger companies that want to be easily searched for it might not be the best option, even though there are ways to get indexed with Flash. There are also languages like Flex and some cool JavaScript that can make for interesting interactive sites, but sometimes it's not worth it when so much can be easily done with Flash. Just my .02
