MacFUSE isn't what you think it is. MacFUSE provides building blocks (in software terms, libraries that provide APIs) using which developers can build any type of file systems. There's nothing "built in".
Try thinking in terms of other "libraries"/"APIs" ... like Apple's Cocoa APIs. Cocoa doesn't have any *applications* built-in. People use Cocoa to *write* applications, like tax preparation software. Wouldn't it be silly if people kept asking Apple questions like "Does Cocoa have tax preparation software built in?" Now, MacFUSE provides multiple file system APIs for developers. The most popular one is the FUSE API, which originated on Linux and also exists on a bunch of other operating systems besides Linux and OS X. There exist many FUSE-API-based file systems that work with MacFUSE. If the remember correctly, the program that you refer to (s3fs) compiles on the Mac and works with MacFUSE.
