We clarify the path integral calculation, recently suggested by Golubev and Zaikin, and show, contrary to their claim, that quasiparticles become fully coherent quantum particles in the $T \to 0$ limit. The important physical point is the inclusion of the recoil of the quasiparticle when interacting with fluctuations in the rest of the Fermi gas.
