It's definitely a tad annoying to have your experience messed up like that. From the perspective of someone who's been playing since the beta though, a lot of people have done Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium more than fifty times each, easily. After the fifth you really don't care about the cutscenes and after the tenth you really don't want to slow down your tomestone farming just because one person hasn't watched the cutscenes.

Again though, there are no other places where this happens because SE learned their lesson.
