There is no advantage of using Cordova if you're only creating Firefox OS apps. The advantage is if you are already using Cordova to write cross-platform HTML apps, you can simply run `cordova platform add firefoxos` and it'll run on Firefox OS now (barring any issues with the API shims). Eventually, the Web APIs supported in Firefox OS will hopefully become the standard APIs for hardware access, and Cordova will change their APIs to match it, and in the end you will just need to write apps against the Web APIs and we can get it to run everywhere. But we are not there yet.
