"However, if you give me a 50% fuzzy logical value of being in my living room, this means that I am lying in the doorway between my living room and my bathroom, such that exactly half of my body is in one place and half of my body is in another." Or it could mean any number of other things depending on what the "Fuzzy logician" finds convenient.
In other words, "Fuzzy logic" can mean anything vague related to numbers. In other words, it's just a buzz word that was trendy in the eighties for quantifying something without any particular logic behind it. In other words, it is crap.
I mean, seriously, the "discovery" of Fuzzy Logic involved no original or interesting mathematical machinery whatsoever, it just involved y Lotfi Zadeh coining a word to cover ad-hoc quantifying processes. It's the flimsiest of "pop" mathematics and it hasn't had much following for a while now. Sure you can "use" it in the sense that still engage ad-hoc quantification but you could do that before Zadeh came around.
