Undue Criticism about Story Points and Velocity

I don’t understand why there is so much criticism, confusion & commotion about Story Points & Velocity.

Sometime back we got an order for a huge boiler. It was to be shipped from Hyderabad to the client refinery location near Mumbai.  6 days after the boiler left our factory & started the journey, I called the truck driver & asked him how far he had reached. 

He told me...
"F
or the last 6 days, we have been consuming 8 cans of diesel per day. But from 
tomorrow, we will surely consume at least 9 cans of diesel on daily basis. In fact, we have set a target for ourselves to increase our consumption by 10%."

His answer made me very happy.  
I thought I had every reason to be happy.
