And steel is just iron with carbon and alloy bikes are just aluminum with magnesium and other elements. Carbon Fiber is Carbon Fiber with some resin to bind it together., It isn't reinforced plastic. These materials are far superior to their base material. You wouldn't make bike from iron, pure aluminum or plastic. So what's your point?
