As long as ppl's conception of 3D is limited to rotating logos with ready-made textures, that's OK. But I'd rather call that 2.5D... It reminds me the app called ShowPlace that Pixar released in the early 90's for ppl interested in MacRenderMan, but didn't have the time or skill to do real Renderman shader development... The sad part of the story is that that kind of lazy implementation of openGL spreads a poor conception of what interactive 3D can be... IMHO this is even more true these days, with the release of openGL 2.0... The difference is somehow like making your own furniture vs buying some stuff at Ikea...
