Yep, but also fiddly and time-consuming to service, expensive, and not wide-spread enough yet to be worth investing in.

Bleeding discs is less hassle and quicker than if you need to recable conventional brakes.
Disc brakes mean you can spend on fancy rims and not worry about them wearing out. Disc rotors much cheaper than new carbon rims.
