i don't understand how this is more efficient than entering your logo text into the google font directory [1], or dafont [2], and just scrolling through all the fonts.. also, why are there no options?

This was kind of the point of the project. I thought that looking at each font in isolation rather than scrolling was a better way of handling it. Also not worrying about tweaking any options means you can ideally get in and get out of the site quicker. Bit of an opinionated look on it I suppose, but interesting to see how people react to it.
