None, really.. You can make cameras more compact, but only with newly designed compact lenses. And the current crop (Sony NEX, Olympus/Panasonic micro 4/3rds, Samsung NX) do not have the range, quality and flexibility lens wise.
Sony uses a non-moving mirror in their SLT's, to allow fast phase detect AF with live view, without blackout. Personally when I'm in need of live view I am not in need of fast phase detect AF without blackout. I am also not a fan of the EVF that the SLT design implies. The SLTs have no real size advantage over DSLRs.
It is just a different concept, not necessarily better.

With slt design you get:
better af during video
better mf during video (peaking and magnification in evf, ability to rec using evf)
better fps ( 12 fps it's today record)
with a65-a77 there is no vibration at all in shot and quiter shutter sound
If you don't need those feature it's only different and not better.
