You're putting far too much meaning into it really. As interconnected they can be, gameplay and lore will never be the same thing. As Linay says, you go to X dungeon because the story tells you to, that's it.
Even more so, the WoL is a powerful adventurer indeed, but not so God-like as you think. Some job quests do make you think you're kind of unique to some extent, but our super power is being strong against Primals. Against other things... not much more than any adventurer really. That's why we are helped by adventurers, Trusts or CHAMPIONS FROM THE RIFT in most cases.
