Freesync is open source, so wouldn’t be profit motivated.

Open source is the best. That doesn't mean the recommendation to move off 60hz isn't profit motivated. Especially when driving displays at over 60hz means selling more graphics cards since your older one may not go far beyond 60.

That’s a good point, but freesync also isn’t mandatory to use I thought? Couldn’t you still use vsync for 120hz and lower?

I'd prefer screen tearing over the delay vsync causes.
