If I remember correctly, FSR versions newer than FSR1 do not support old versions of DirectX. So in order to implement them, the game engine's graphics tech would need to be rewritten to DX12 or Vulkan, which I don't see happening, because of how much work that would be.
(Personally, I'd prefer FF14 to use Vulkan since that would also mean DirectX calls would no longer need to be translated on Linux)
