I think that is the show-stopper. Since XSL-FO 1.1 the two are pretty similar in what they support because of the addition of table markers. There might be other nuances, but the one that jumped to the top of mind was the page number. What in this comparison is nice about table headers is their variable height (regions have fixed heights).
I hope this helps.

\I was trying some stuff and realized that the document headers can be either used using the region-before or using the table-header. The later is by not having a region-before, but define the region body as a table with the first row as a header row. I know that the following arguments goes for the region before 1.region before is designed for page headers 2.there is a code separation where we can clearely see where the body if the page is and where the header is.. 3. In a page where there are no tables, you would have introduced a table for no reason... etc...
May be some more.. I am not trying to clearely use the table header instead of the page header, but want to know if there are any performance benifits in the page header as opposed to the table headers? And is there a situation where we can definitely not use a table header ..
