The common advice of using a throttle limit IMHO is an unnecessary compromise. You can get pretty much the exact same 'feel' without sacrificing pop using throttle expo instead. To use expo properly, you have to set mid throttle to whatever your mostly flying at. If you mostly hover/cruise, setting mid to hover throttle works well. If you spend lots of time full tilt, increasing mid throttle beyond hover can make it feel more in control.

I use 0.5 throttle expo, 0.35mid on my meteor75 to reduce my collisions when flying indoors. That gives me pop to do those intentionally exciting last second flips over a fast approaching obstacles etc, but more mid throttle control so I'm not always accidentally sending it warp speed into the walls/ceilings (it's easy to do on a 75 even if you are a decent pilot). I go to linear while outdoors to give me a bit more mid throttle snap to battle the gusts of wind easier. My 65's have linear for both indoors and out.

IMHO, the only good place for a throttle limit is while you wait for lower Kv motors or smaller props to arrive.

xD you are speaking about an output limit

"the same feel" its not about feel, its very different to expo: its resolution on the stick per %
resolution over the whole throttle area, not just partialy

throttle expo doesnt allow presicio n on high performance, i never touch throttle expo on a normal quad.
the only quad with a throttle expo in a rateprofile is my slowflyer, my cinewhoop to get smooth out of dives.

I swore I said throttle limit... anyway yeah output limits would be even worse cause they affect PIDs as well. I agree WRT expo and aggressive flight... it's not useful when tapping into high performance. It is useful for more 'delicate' flights where the extra mid throttle stick movement can help... like cine or a newb flying an m75 in a small house. Throttle limits can give a similar, dare I say "stick feel" to a bit of expo. All I'm sayin really is expo can do similar, and keeps full thrust on tap if needed.
