Voxels?

I was browsing the superinformation highway, and found something about voxels, (specifically, the voxlap library, written in C). I've learned that voxels lost the war against polygons, and now we all are stuck to them, and to silly clipping problems

But voxels are a pretty cool guy, they can represent real objects and even mechanisms with various resolutions using voxels as 'atoms', and they are not afraid of systems without 3d acceleration.

So, /prog/, tell me, in your opinion, why are voxels so ignored, and what could be the practical application that will make them a 'mainstream' technology?

In case you dont know shit about what i'm talking about, watch these

Note that fuzzy logic and probabilistic logic are orthogonal concepts – you can have systems with fuzzy logic but certain values, crisp logic with uncertain values, or both fuzziness and uncertainty.
