Someone else, in a similar thread, mention what could be a huge benefit to some people.

People who have to use public transportation on cold winter mornings (or evenings) usually wear gloves, and only the Voyage's haptic page turn buttons lets you turn pages with gloves on. The Paperwhite's screen won't respond to gloved fingers.

I'm sure there are other reading situations besides public transportation that would require wearing gloves, as well. Being a passenger on a long ride in a vehicle whose heater isn't working...or even power outages in the home.

We had a winter storm two or three winters ago, causing a power outage that left us without heat for days. Without electricity, the TV, computer and WiFi were out, too, so my Kindle was the only way to pass the time.

Unfortunately, that was before I had my Voyage, so I had to remove one glove, just so I could turn pages on my Paperwhite. I just kept tucking that hand under my throw blanket, but having a Voyage would've made that an easier experience.
