Roadies and HED wheels?

Is there any particular reason that roadies (rim brake) have never taken to HED wheels, other than the vanity of wanting full carbon? I get they are slightly heavier than comparable Zipp 404 and the like of 55-60mm depth, but they're also much cheaper, likely sturdier, and you get the benefit of textured aluminum brake tracks. I've owned sets of full carbons over the years, and have never given the HED's any thought, in large part because no one outside triathlons rides them. Am I missing something, or are these a good buy roadies have been missing out on?
