I have this same opinion.
But I like to see from a Valve-develooper a clear answer.
Not a link to any wiki or something else.

It prevails among the players of the widespread misconception that
more FPS mean, that you hit better or the gamplay is smoother.
Meanwhile, it sucks just yet, that providers offer servers for 20,000
FPS.

It is finally time that Valve itself refers to the position and
finally stops the half-knowledge.
