You seem to have very strong feelings when other people have different preferences then you. Why would use words like bizarre, delusional and total waste, when discussing such trivial matters.

>> Why? Do you think that is reasonable at all, when something as simple as just mounting over ssh exists?

In short yes. I use it mostly on remote machines and on my desktop Linux machine. Before that I used Norton Commander on DOS. I don't remote only from Linux machines but also from a Windows laptop. It is much quicker and easier to simple run "mc" in an ssh session when I need it than trying to mount the drive and then run another application on the local machine.
