While I don't buy Tony's comparison in full (there are certainly cleaner ways to write the ASP code), I think you're missing the point. Sure, all the same things are happening, but with CF, you don't have to look at them - the functionality is abstracted away from you within a very nice, clean presentation model. The tag-based presentation model can't be beat for generating output into larger strings being sent to the browser or an SMTP server or whatever.
