I like the chocobo and airship cutscenes, but there's really nothing epic about watching my character walk onto an elevator.
Like I said, it was designed so that nobody ever has to wait for the elevator.

In the Metalworks, there were two elevators, one on each floor at any given time, so you generally didn't hvae to wait much. But with one elevator, that goes to multiple different destinations, the cutscene method is necessary to eliminate waiting for someone else to finish using it.
