It's considered a good replacement for C++, and like go, is really good for releasing tools. Tools like the AWS CLI... that work great when you can plop a single exe down as your install story, as opposed to say a python install and app (aws cli).
But it's also still new. Releasing a tool like this is likely a big deal in the area, and they're likely quite prod of it due to the effort of things like getting legal approval, marketing, etc, let alone the cool nerd factor of a filesystem, who doesn't want to show off by having written a filesystem or hell a fuse plugin... file system over dns anyone?
