Well, you're right. I have no quarrel with a 5 amp fuse for the fuel pump (1.4A operating amperage) but for me, as long as the fuse does not exceed the wire's rated amperage even at 10 amps we're still pretty good. It's all within reason though. I would not say the same for even higher amperage fuses in this application.
