Because some anonymous internet poster owns one, has used it in the surf and submerged it and asked Jack Charlton directly if it was a waterproof reel, to which he replied, "yes".
If you'd like, give Scott at Bear's Den a call and ask him about the reels, he'll gladly tell you all about them, infact he got it for me.

Regardless, I'm definitely not wrong about it being way overkill for striped bass. The VS that the OP wanted to use is more than adequate. It too has a waterproof drag.

How precisely is that reel "overkill" for stripers as opposed to the VS?
Plenty of bass have died to bottom of the line Orvis reels without fail.
Pretty much anything over $75 is "overkill".
