What makes you exactly think that there won't be a learning curve for experienced players as well? Do you expect level 70 to not bring any new abilities into people's rotations? While it is true SE has been reusing mechanics for their extreme primal fights for almost the whole HW series, there's nothing stopping new players trying old primals unsynced or not, you won't be able to ignore Sephirot EX mechanics at level 70, simply because they do so much damage. And SE is already making content laughably easy, falling off in Sophia EX has no meaning at all except instakill, the killwall in Zurvan EX isn't instakill and if you're lucky with server ticks you don't even get damaged by it.

You were a new player once too, what was your first extreme primal experience? Do you think people laughed at you because you didn't have any previous experience? You have to start learning somewhere, and why would you want to force new players to learn hard fights by doing something that they have little to gain from? Instead when they eventually manage to down their first Stormblood extreme primal, they'll be glad they could do it, and possibly get a relevant weapon or accessory on top of it. Having done old extreme primals and raids only gives veteran players the advantage of having knowledge of some mechanics the fights could have.
