He makes a fairly comprehensive argument in the article ;) But sure I'll try to list some of the benefits mentioned. 1. Identity without names. Never any risk of overwriting files when renaming. Only explicit deletes. 2. A wider range of ways to model data. Including but not limited to a hierarchical approach. 3. No duplication of data. The same file can exist in multiple projects without coupling them or wasting space on the hard drive. ... All in all it seems quite a powerful idea. But I'm sure there are issues that would have to be solved for it to replace traditional file systems.
