They roll out dungeons to be accessible to anyone and everyone and many many players are vastly overgeared for their difficulty. This leads to two options for those of us with stronger gear... you can take it slow and never have even the slightest hiccup to engage you or you could speed run it and rarely have something mildly exciting occur. The added benefit of the latter is that you can squeeze more duties into the time you have to play if they don't take as long. The only detractor is that the party might wipe at which point there is 0 penalty other than going back to the start and having to teleport to where you just were and try again. A wipe can make a dungeon longer than it would have been if it was speed run but usually still not longer than a 1 pack at a time method.

TL;DR: Lots of people outgear dungeons at release, there's benefits to be gained from a speed run and practically 0 detractors.
