ELI5: Why is a frame rate of 60+ FPS desirable in video games when the human eye can olny see 25 to 30?

There are a number of reasons:

* The 25-30 figure has been debunked a number of times. There is a appreciable visual difference between 30fps and 60fps, and then again between 60fps and 80fps, but not much beyond there.
* Faster response time to input
* If you're running at 30fps and some event happens that causes a framerate drop, its gonna hurt. If you're running at 60fps and something causes it to drop, you've got a much bigger 'safe-zone' where the game still runs smoothly. This is partly why 'competitive' players aim for 120fps so you can have as much as a 50% drop and still be silky smooth.
