"In from the Cold" Scenario, any way to skip it?

I'm going to disagree with you there. I think it was great. As others said, it makes you feel helpless. "Who are you without your suit?" - "If you're nothing without your suit - you shouldn't have it" but with blessing.
Also you kinda need to be immersed with the story to understand the atmosphere. Ofc it's fine if you don't like it. It's just I feel like you focus on how annoying the duty is, instead of what's happening around you there.

Yes, that's what they were going for. The feeling of helplessness, in a form not your own. Unfortunately, even if I was playing my WoL, I'd be striving to avoid every single enemy, just as the mission states, but obviously not for the reason of "helplessness". You have to run back and forth, from one side to the other, and if you didn't know to go the "right" way, first, you may be running around and around, due to it having to be done in a specific order.

I actually got lost there and just started walking around collecting every shiny I could see, so eventually when I found my way out, I already had all needed items

The healing potions aren't needed, it's the fuel tank or whatever, as I recall, and you can't pick that up until you talk to the pilot.

It was the key. You could fill the tank with fuel without it. You needed healing potions if you weren't careful and pulled a few mobs. Still, I think I collected everything in that duty.
