What possible advantage is there to making cell phone calls VoIP? CDMA and GMS are already digital, why bother with IP encapsulation?

What happens when more than half of the bits on your digital network are IP data packets rather than legacy voice data (typically 7Kbps channels)?

Does it make more sense to send everything as IP packets?
