If anything, the FoF trait (god I hate traits for fist stances, especially when they can and have buffed them through patches without the need of traits...) detracted from the anticipation of getting GL4. At least for me, when I saw that FoF got a trait for 10% damage, my first thought was: "but why? Does that mean GL4 is basically just going to be the same but faster?". I do like GL4, but I wish there was more substance to MNK as opposed to 'here, go fast for as long as you can.'
I was genuinely surprised that GL4 was a permanent buff instead of a temporary buff we’d enter for 20 seconds at a time or so. People hated slowing down for Riddle of Fire but I doubt that people would care about dropping back to normal if we temporarily sped up instead.
