Correlation is calculated using FFTs, so wouldn't that be just as slow?

Computations can be reduced if you only care about frequencies near 6 particular ones (and maybe some harmonics).
You'd get shit tuner if you do that. Ain't nobody got time to define scales on a fucking tuner
There's only 12 per octave, way fewer than doing FFT for all frequencies in Hz steps.
