People didn't like them to much because:

1) You could only have 10 Merits total before you HAD to upgrade your character
2) it was 10,000 limit points for 1 merit point which was steep back in the day
3) Some of the upgrades, cost a lot more than what they were worth (especially the higher tiers of upgrading)

Now and days in XI you get exp so fast its nothing to worry about lol.
Oh, I see. Yeah, lets not put that in FFXIV plz.
