Alliance Raids and players not waiting for Cutscene Watchers

Exactly.

What most here seem to forget is THAT is why Prae and Castrum are unskippable now.

No. By suggesting THAT is why is a complete lie if you are to leave out the fact the cutscenes are in the middle of the duty. Add that with praetorium being able to be completed in less than 10 minutes, causing a CS watcher to miss the entirety of the duty for watching the first couple cutscenes.
Even when those places had skippable cutscenes, the party would just go about their business, often leaving the viewer behind. It was more common to see a garbled mess of directions, trying to help navigate the places for people or a “just take the teleport” than to see anyone have a negative or snarky comment about the viewer.
This “exactly” nonsense when fabricating lies

Prae and Castrum are unskippable owing to years of players being kicked, abused and left behind when watching cutscenes

Back when you could skip, there were daily posts from newbies complaining about how they were forced to either chose to see the fights or watch cutscenes and miss all the fights. SE really was in a now win position, sadly. The new players were just constantly mentioning how it soured the game for them.

Ill say this again:

The devs and design teams want players to see these cutscenes, INGAME at the time, AND NOT LATER.

FF 14 is a storydriven MMORPG, Prae and Castrum are story dungeons.

Its as simple as that.

Respecting other player is basic thing in MMO, you will interact with player if you play MMO. If you can’t , please find some other single player game to play.
Another solution can be Just make some mechanics that require 24 people to do it, problem solved, this can also solve the issue on current 24 man is way too easy as well. LOL
