I believe that Lively was switched to canvas.
Good point. I had forgotten about that, though I don't think they threw away the SVG stuff.
If I understand correctly they used Morphic's canvas as an abstraction over a choice of SVG or HTML Canvas. I can't really picture that in my head, perhaps because I think of Morphic's canvas as a sheet of pixels.
A Google search turned up a fascinating book the Lively Kernel team published last year, which has some comments about SVG.
