Definitely valid points, as I mentioned in a comment below I'll be updating the README to mention this is geared towards systems with SSDs.
As for lacking most of cp(1)'s options, that's a deliberate choice. My goal with fcp is to make the most common use case of cp(1) (i.e. copy some files/directories with no options) fast, not to replace cp(1) completely.
