Removal of loading screens

What do you mean?

1.0 was on a completely different engine most likely written in a completely different coding language, it's unlikely that any kind of 1.0 code is present in XIV

I'm sorry, but as much as we all wish they had, ARR was not made independently of 1.0.

They did not code an entire MMO from scratch in 2 years, let alone do so in secret while still supporting 1.X.

ARR was built on the back of 1.0 and loads of code is still present. That's where all these "spaghetti code" issues come from.

The Ps4 is perfectly capable of handling a full open world game like TESO or Black Desert Online.
So yes, if it was wanted it would have been done long ago.

ESO has loading screens between every zone.

They had to import 1.0 characters, so there has to be code to make that work, at the very least.
