because they are not fuses!
First of all I think power amps are where it really matters. Fuses contribute to a lack of dynamics and realism. It's one reason why I use cut and Simichrome polished brass and aluminum same size tubing. Any hobby shop should have them. Try listening to Bill Bruford's trademark snare pop with and without and you'll be sold too.
Of course I only go "sans fuses" with equipment I really trust and never with my tube equipment. I'm confident I can fix any damage which might occur. But since I have practiced this since the late '70s, first with my Kenwood L-07MII monoblocks without a hitch, I'm forever sold. The difference in dynamics is immediately noticeable. It's not subtle.
I tried this with various preamps and I could not hear any difference so I use ceramics there.
If you are reckless and a danger to yourself and your gear, don't try this.
