Actually, the Elementals confirmably are still mad, and this was a huge problem for the refugee situation after Garlemald took Ala Mhigo; it's why most of the refugees ended up trying to settle in Ul'Dah. And again, Stormblood Carpenter shows there's still some tension and animosity there among the populace, even if on paper they're supposed to be cool now.
