Praetorium Mobs Question

I have a dumb question.

I run the Main Scenario duty roulette quite a bit. During the cutscenes I chill out, mute the sound, get some work done, read the news, etc.

In the Praetorium, there are two areas where you can skip trash mobs by interacting with teleports so long as you are not being hit. For example, at the start a tank will typically gather enmity and click out before anything hits him/her, thus making it easier for others to simply walk past as the mobs are still trying to reach the unreachable tank. Or, if someone is left behind, they simply die and spawn back past the areas.

To my dumb question... is this okay? It has been like this for years (always?) and hasn't been changed. Patch 4.2 made cutscenes unskippable so surely they're aware of it and would have modified it then. My guess is that it is old content and there is no value in changing it as it'd only infuriate players (the duty is long enough!). It has become standard strategy and is harmless.

I want to make sure I'm not exploiting the game by participating in this. It isn't really a "bug" so much as a case of not-so-great design. I figure we're helping new players get through the MSQ by doing the roulette (and being amply rewarded) but want to set my guilty conscious at ease and make sure this is okay to do.

Thanks.

It's far beyond any point they could punish players by calling that an exploit. We were doing this all the way back in ARR.

You notice we didn't get any more of those duties after those 2 in ARR primarily because of the cutscenes in Praetorium. People helping with clears didn't want to wait the 20-30 minutes of CS viewing so the new person or people could participate in most of the combat portions of the duty and many of the new people complained about being stuck in a chain of cutscenes because everyone else cleared the duty while they were going.

While it probably contributes to the amount of later dungeons with unskippable roadblocks, there's no reason not to skip them now.
