It's not nonsense - they haven't claimed any such thing. I think it's summed up very well in the knowledgebase article, they don't make out that they have cured defragmentation completely, and mention problems that can occur when you are writing really large files or are approaching disk capacity. There are however, as I'm sure you're aware, many people who are routinely (and needlessly) defragmenting their OSX drives. I would suggest that unless people fit into one of the special categories (as you clearly do, granted!) they are very unlikely to suffer from the kind of problems they had with OS9 and earlier - in fact, routine defragmentation is asking for trouble.
