I don't think having chat is worth the aggravation of having to be forced to listen to toxic babies who can't handle losses in a videogame.

With that said, I'm fine with an option for people to opt in and out of feast chat. Id that happens, I hope you enjoy and "learn" from the thousands of "l2p" and various profanities hurled your way.
You jest, but not only would I learn what things elicit their frustrated jabs, I would learn about the players. Who is worth hanging out with, and who is too lacking in self-control to be worth the effort. After most of a decade of playing League of Legends, I can honestly say that I have learned a lot from team chat, no matter how much mockery and invective gets thrown around. It's one of the advantages of living by the adage 'sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me'.

It's kind of funny...and sad when people will act like the rear end of an incontinent horse then wonder why stuff like chat is revoked. Like, how dare consequences occour for my actions? If ya don't want privileges revoked try not acting like a raging 12 year old.
Smugly championing the removal of privileges for all on account of the actions of some reflects poor character. Poor logic as well, because even in FFXIV's "friendly, welcoming" PvE environment there is no lack of snide, deliberately hostile commentary. This morning, not even twelve hours after the content was released, I watched a tank babyrage at healers failing mechanics in the fourth Eden raid. "bruh....", "BRUH", "BRUHHHH", and so forth after they got punted off the platform, leading into full sentences of bitching and moaning. Were your logic to be utilized outside of PvP, it would surely mean the removal of chat from all duty finder content.
