I can enumerate other "very simple" answers:

- DBA
Firebird doesn't need a DBA, just a small and simple notions of
backup/restore services;

- Delphi support
If your language is Delphi, you're Firebird connections options are much
valuable.

- Easy of Install / Deploy
You talked about the embedded version, but this features apply to server

Just to give 1cent to discussion.
