That explains my instinctive rejection to Golden Venture modeling. However, why 
is that kusudama and other modular construction like the so-called wire frames 
are so well and widely accepted amongst origami paperfolders -orthodox 
paperfolders included ;) ? 

Yes, and what about the origami which are made with very few folds but with a 
lot of molding to give expression to the model.  Are those not origami because 
the piece relies on something that is not valley & mountain folds?  See works

In my opinion, 3D origami is nothing but a construction technique using
block stacking akin to Lego.
Albeit the base module or block is created using a few simple folds of a
rectangular paper, the focus  is on just block stacking.
It looses the essence of the basic principles of Origami.

What kind of :3D Origami" are you talking about?  There is a kind of modular 
origami made with small triangular pieces which is now popularly called 3D 
origami.  It is also called Chinese origami or Golden Venture Folding.  You can 
read about it here:

Golden Venture folding allows you to create elaborate 3D origami structures 
ranging from swans, pineapples, litt...

I've searched the list about this topic but no relevant results came up.
I'd like to know what do you think about it. [3D origami]

My first inclination is to note that most of my own origami is 3D, and in fact 
most origami by modern artists nowadays is 3D; there is relatively little flat 
(2D) origami done anymore. And so I would say I like 3D origami very much.

But I realize that some people use the term “3D origami” not to mean “origami 
that is 3D,” but to refer to a specific style of modular origami that is built 
from many small triangular units, sometimes called “Golden Venture” units. And 
from the way you phrased your question, I suspect that is what you are 
referring to. I will answer assuming that was your intent (and apologize in 
advance if it wasn’t).

I tend to apply the term “origami” fairly broadly, to any art form or endeavor 
where “folding is the primary means of creating the form.” In Golden Venture 
unit modular origami, the importance of folding in the overall result seems 
somewhat diminished relative to the role of folding in other forms of origami, 
and so that makes that genre less interesting to me personally than most other 
forms of origami. To each one’s own, though; there are folks out there who love 
to do it, and I wish them happy folding and assembly.
