CC also means more than sleep, though Sleep in FF14 is by far the most common. For example the Conjurers "Push them away and root them into place for 6 seconds" abillity Fluid Aura is also a CC. Technically Stun is a CC but it's too short to be really used for it. Basically anything that helps deal with larger crowds of mobs more easily is CC.
Exactly. CC is anything that slows the enemy down. Not to be confused with Debuffing an enemy where you lower their base stats or poison them or any variation of it. CC is the physical slowing or outright stopping of an enemy. Like a BM's ice spells are designed to slow and root an enemy in place. This is both considered CC. Though usually CC is referring to sleeping an enemy.
