I think there is a recognition that Carbon is not magic, and whilst it may be great, other materials can also be tailored to specific uses. Seems like the industry is moving from wonder material (Steel - Al - TI - Crabbon) to a more varied approach.
It also gives companies a niche they can dominate, cannondale and moots/baum etc.
