Jon,
"Limiting fault current via 'current limiting' fuses." is different than "Limiting fault current via the resistance of extra service/feeder conductor.", "Limiting fault current via adding line reactors." and "Limiting fault current via coiling the service/feeder conductors up to form 'air core' inductors."
BTW, another option is to request the utility company to provide a high impedance service transformer, so the resulting fault current will be lower.
The limiting fault current via 'current limiting' fuses is dependent on the amount of fault current. The fuse is an inverse time type device, so that if anything downstream or upstream should lower the fault current by their actions dynamically, the fuse will perform differently (generally slower).
The other methods of fault current reduction, reduce fault current no matter what the devices may do.
