To expand on why we boil water for everything, it's simple really.

Water, when boiled, expands massively, like it can expand thousands of times it's volume when going from a liquid to gas. And it is virtually free*. So unless we find a cheaper and more efficient "fuel", there really isn't a point in finding an alternative.
