FATE is a spam fest with no thinking involved..it is only for EXP and drops nothing game breaking..it is a sad, pathetic filler and slap in the face to the folks wanting real NM content. It is a waste of time end game...no one really uses it outside of leveling up. I would never consider it end game replacement for NM/etc...that is a joke.
Were you not around for beta? Yoshida shot down the ideas several times, even made a near novel long post on why FFXIV goes under the systems it does today over other content that was used in FFXI/1.xx. A shame you missed out.
