I read it. Im pretty clear on what it does. Im still not feeling the why (or the differentiator from other things that store files and give you URLs).

Remember when Dropbox explained itself by telling you you didnt need to carry around USB sticks in your jean pockets that get washed or lost? I thought that was pretty neat.

Still, using a distributed file system is so much better, as its API is supported by basically everything else (including Dropbox!).

I feel that a key-value store goes against the Unix philosophy and is solving an imaginary problem.

A distributed file system seems like way more work to set up.

Also not everything has to follow the Unix philosophy. Plenty of very useful things are better off less Unix-y eg ffmpeg. But this doesn’t seem to do a bad job - it’s a very dedicated tool to do one thing, it just doesn’t store everything as files.
