I know some in this game since launch, who although they keep up with the story often only skim or skip the text where it doesn't seem vital to the main body of the story, whereas I tend to read it all in detail . Even so they have been consistently ahead of me by a long margin since the launch of ARR. Largely because they on the whole use their time more efficiently and are generally more organised as players, so they progress more swiftly. There really isn't that much detailed second string MSQ to complete and the rest of the leveling is about as fast as you can get without being given L50 as a new player. The whole O.P complaint is stems from a vastly over exaggerated 'emperor's new game issue.'
