Indeed, I am well aware that the human eye does not process in frames per second. 

That is why the words above were carefully chosen- 

It’s unclear if the nerves between the human eye and brain can even process more than 100 per second.” While you can technically “see” an unlimited amount of frames per second, there is a limit to how much of it your brain can actually process quickly enough before it no longer registers as visible. 
It is widely believed that a single frame spliced into anything more than 100fps would be difficult if not impossible to notice.
There’s an article on this somewhere, if I can dig it up again I’ll post it.

To clarify, my point is the eye can see well in excess of 100 FPS as the above referenced article points out.
