CRIT RATE is often a far more desirable stat than either ATK% or CRIT DMG% on Feixiao's relics and cones because of her bonus ability which grants 36% CRIT DMG and her ease of access to CRIT DMG buffs in her top team compositions. Because of this, it's entirely normal and optimal to expect your Feixiao to have close to 90-100% CRIT while having a relatively low CRIT DMG stat before entering combat.
