Uh, animation seems really slow... Swing is in fact much faster. Why JavaFX! They should have focused on improving Swing, and perhaps make heavy changes to it, but a separate client technology is a nonsense. Things like flash, silverlight... are in decline: with HTML5, Javascript and CSS3, they will not be used much. And the worst part is for java, whose JVM is great but yes, startup time is annoying. JavaFX arrived late.
prove me wrong: I want an example where JavaFX is useful & best solution
Fine. Whatever.

Sun's / Oracle biggest mistake is making JavaFX proprietary again, it used to be open source
And if it stayed that way it would have enjoyed huge adoption by now
