(If it does, then it seems to me that a self-releasable limiter would be remarkably useful as a covert-ops stealth tool.)
Vita never had any "limiter release" scene either despite being limited, unless we want to think that Zest himself was limited when he fought Vita. We need to base it on reasonable assumption, and I think Fate/Signum/Vita = released is viable to be accurate in that situation.

And AMF is not shown to be so powerful that it can nerf an S+ to around AA rank. It only tires them, and makes magic fusion and concentration harder, but not really 'weaken' them in the literal sense. It's a disadvantage to them, but it's not that powerful to those used to them.
