How have you determined what CF developers general consider CFCs for? Further, how do you know they usually aren't used for display? I for one have never used a CFC for data access or business logic as I prefer the use of Java classes. Second, even if I were to accept that the general use of CFCs is as you stated --which I don't-- that isn't an argument for or against using CFCs another way.
