Fenders for your Tarmac, CAAD12, etc?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Seems like a red herring (or wait, is that a straw man?) Who actually claims that fenders do slow you down?
