Yes, you are of course right that MIDI has sever limitations. Still,
there are a lot of usecases where those limitations don't matter or
the are even desirable. (Most limitations tend to create new styles in
art.)

Also, the audio to CV solutions have quite poor linux/OSS support at
the moment, AFAIK.

So, if the price is right, MIDI2CV still has its uses, IMO.
