Nah, that system is a little better despite looking quite overbuild (and made from steel).
The main reason is that the full rack may stiffen fork up too much, however having a big platform that mount on the middle of the fork allow the fork to absorb vibration as well as it normally can without making it overly stiff.
Also the way it's mounted, it look very easy to simply fit a low rider on it and still be under 1kg and have increased stability and strength (if the Surly rack is around 400g which I doubt).

Unless Specialized release the pizza rack, that is.
