You have to target enemies in Final Fantasy XIV to attack them, so the sluggish inertia animations don't do a single thing for strategy. Every single skill (unless the PvP exclusive skills are different, which they won't be) are cast/used directly on the target. The only "strategy" involved in moving would be to avoid having them hit you from a specific direction, which the inertia animation has nothing to do with.

OH, HE STAGGERED TO THE LEFT! GOOD THING I AM STILL STANDING STILL AND CASTING MAGIC!

It's almost as if none of you have actually played this game before!
