But, why use those parts?

These circuits take a lot of parts to do a job that you can do with modern high frequency stuff with a lot lower cost and parts count.

The normal point of a capacitive doubler is either to give you a voltage you need without a lot of extra parts count (often negative) or to generate a very high voltage.
