BMS for 26650 cells - Newbie Questions

So I have an extra Daly BMS that Will showcased in one of his videos, with charge/discharge current of 60A. I have a 4s 12v battery pack with 26650 cells that i want to slap it on. Now the thing that confuses me and makes me uneasy is the batteries max discharge current listed in their specs, which is 25 amps and recommended charge being 2.5A

As a beginner in these battery building things I have come to understand that the charge controller regulates the incoming current, but how is the BMS protecting the batteries if it cuts off at 60A?

Also it seems to be advised to get a BMS with a discharge cut off of 100A or so if dealing with an inverter of heavier load capabilities, like 1200W Victron that I have (allthough I'm not planning to use anything that draws so much power from the inverter).

So my question is : Is this Daly BMS suitable for these battery cells, if so why?
If not, what kind would be ideal?

cheerios.
