The trait of her burst attack that's something like deal extra damage based on number of stacks is technically not a buff to burst damage, so it would not be limited by that cap.
So Uriel has a way around that cap, so she's happy.
Conversely, someone like Metatron doesn't have a way to circumvent that cap, so she's not happy.
Fire Metatron would, in addition to the usual +burst damage buff, give herself a sneak attack buff to try to amplify damage that way (it affects normal damage, which in turn gets used for burst damage). Additionally, Fire Metatron's burst attack has a side effect of giving herself a burst damage upper limit buff. The wording seems to be the same used as another buff that's described as raising the soft damage cap (not the cap on +burst buffs). She's happier than normal Metatron at least.
