Why shouldn't someone be allowed to watch the cutscenes on first playthrough?

.. you really show you don't run MS roulette at all ...

You obviously haven't seen speed runner run so far ahead skipping all sorts of stuff and forcing people to use the shortcut and skipping zones. More often than not, the 1st-timer in this situation gets a clear but they are so lost they don't even know how get on the magitek and ride down the ramp and get stuck there. It would seem that your do NOT run Praetorium.

And in CM there are many zone that a 1st-timer can end up skipping without even knowing that happened. They often ask where is everyone and get told to return and use the shortcut.

In all likelihood, these supposedly new people, probably got locked out of the bosses in their first run thru because they were watching cutscenes, and are now doing it again to get the boss fights. People should never have been abused like that in the first place. They should NOT have to do all cutscenes without the boss fights or boss fights without the cutscenes, and have all the continuity all messed up in either case.
