For The Love Of God Please Add Skip Cut Scene To The Story Dungeons

It doesn't sound like you do like the content, if you so badly want to skip it, yet still reap the rewards for it...

You've never watched a favorite movie so many times you get sick of it, no matter how much you once enjoyed it? Never been around many kids? The kids still love it, of course, so you definitely need to play it, but you can't even be in the same room.

Newbies in FF14 aren't your kids.
Don't pretend you're running MSQ roulette for their benefit if you want to skip cutscenes.

Yeah, you don't need to be in the same room... but you do need to let the whole thing play. You don't tell the kids "you can watch it but I'm fast-forwarding over all the action scenes and some of the talking so the running time is shorter for all of us". That's what you're doing from the newbie's perspective if you want to leave them watching the cutscenes while you press on with the dungeon.

Praetorium is the dungeon where you leave the cutscenes running while you walk away and do other stuff, and only come back every so often for the gameplay segments. It's not ideal, but we're stuck with it because people couldn't self-regulate and wait on the occasions where someone was actually new and watching the cutscenes. Now we have to wait every time.
