I think this is a vastly underrated point. I am usually not interested in searching the majority of files on my filesystem. I can't remember the last time I needed to search through system files for normal computer use reasons.
I also think the author completely skips over how to handle related files. If my application needs to load a library, how does it find the file to use? If it's by name, how are name clashes handled? I suppose it could be by tag, with built-in tags, but then you won't be able to change the tags without having to change configs or the binary itself.
