Highly doubt any JP or NA players can understand this unless they travel here and try it for themself.
FFXI has been using old servers and networking equipment compared to what we should be running 14 on, for us in the EU then I would agree 0.1 sec ping probably is a little fast but it shouldnt be much more, maybe 0.2 or 0.3, because the internet is getting faster, just because you got a 0.4 sec ping on FFXI doesnt mean much these days because of the rapidly evolving technology.

New protocols and faster networking and harware are being released all the time so because FFXI, probably now using 2-3 year old gear will have a slower ping than FFXIV when we get the half decent servers.
