I'd align myself more with the thought of them becoming potentially overwhelmed when they realize exactly what's going on and panic. It would also make sense that they'd be more irritated in a heightened state of mind and make some potentially rude remarks.

Yeah learning is done through there but they use the DF for harder content in a way that NA/EU doesn't. Which is why I also feel they should add some sort of warning to the game that attempting said content through PF would be recommended and to not attempt DF until they are comfortable with the fight. Would help avoid sprouts falling to the EX DF hole and probably relieve some stress from others who don't want to deal with it in Mentor roulette. Even then, probably still would have some sprouts who just don't pay attention and do it anyway so..

I'm curious actually, what would be the best solution to this problem?
Hard to say really. Since most regions use PF as the primary learning tool, it would make sense to me for the game to direct players there in the case of EX+
Maybe remove them from being DF queueable entirely?
A bit drastic granted, but there's not much benefit to having them there, except for sprouts to get their first EX clears against Ifrit or similar.
