Whenever I tried to use the frame limiter it would always perform worse than unlimited, like I ususally hover around 90-120 on uncapped with occasional dips down to 60, but if I put the 60 cap on it dips down to 40.I think it's less about outcry and more of the fact some people reported having issues using SE's artificial FPS limiter. Some people had issues trying to cap it at 60 and had to run it uncapped, while other happen to have a 120 or 144hz monitors that would benefit more from uncapped FPS. This might negatively affect some people, even though they are far from being the majority of the players.
I am biased towards having uncapped FPS though, but I am more concerned about the reports about capping your FPS on XIV causing people some issues.
From what I understood they are just replacing the Unlimited FPS with the 90 FPS max without adding anything else to the options menu.
