Think with 90 is that.... if the stored exp is "for real", a lot of us would instantly become 90 (or at least after some main story quests)
That's kinda silly....
On a side note, all my ninja are now capped at 85 99.99%, and I have rarely used any food at all (just rotate them as I sweep instance).
I wonder if I can get all my ninja fully awakened by the time cap goes up....
