That is because I was the one who was confused.

It was not gvfs but was actually fuse and fuse3 for which I was mentioning.

fuse - Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) is a simple interface for userspace programs to
export a virtual filesystem to the Linux kernel. It also aims to provide a
secure method for non privileged users to create and mount their own filesystem
implementations.

fuse3 - Filesystem in Userspace (3.x version) 
Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) is a simple interface for userspace programs to
export a virtual filesystem to the Linux kernel. It also aims to provide a
secure method for non privileged users to create and mount their own filesystem
implementations.

And fuse3 is installed in Debian Gnome.
