You should read the full quote, he really doesn't disagree with you:

> fuse works fine if the thing being exported is some random low-use interface to a fundamentally slow device. But for something like your root filesystem? Nope. Not going to happen.

His point is that FUSE is useful and fine for things that aren't performance critical, but it's fundamentally too slow for cases where performance is relevant.
