I think the fundamental difference is how we define risk
MPT define risk as volatility that actually has a downside skew. That's why they can conclude that private equities, which selectively mark to market or provide monthly prices, are safer than treasuries in 2022. Buffett himself mentioned quite a bit on this eg why would risk increase when price goes down and decrease when price goes up
Fundamentals define risk as what we know vs what we don't know / cannot control and what can go wrong. Once this basis is established the rest eg which stock, allocation, concentration risk etc will follow
