9p involves a lot of round trips to create/write files. I benchmarked sshfs using fuse vs. 9p in the kernel and sshfs was significantly faster.

Perfect is the enemy of good, and 9p is great.
That's not an argument here. If starting from scratch, might as well go with the thing that works best. Ssh is not an obscure protocol. If it's faster than 9p, that's what I'll use.
That sound you hear is the hellish screeching of a million git status monorepo users waiting for their shell prompt to reappear
Any rational reason you like it?
