Cons
Con Linux version is not very mature
The Linux version is missing HTML/CSS features when compared to the Windows version.
Con Not fully HTML5 compliant
Lacking HTML5 functionality and W3C standards: grabbing a library like JQuery or Bootstrap and use it in Sciter will not work.
Con Not WYSIWYG
Not WYSIWYG like WebForms or WPF.
Con Strictly C++
Con This is an application development framework not simply a GUI toolkit / library API
It is designed for you to develop your whole application using it, not just your GUI. Most people probably are not really looking for that.
