I've been 50 for over two months(I got in day one of early access), I never once skipped a cutscene. Hell, I even took 2 weeks off my main to level alt/play Mass Effect 3, and I still managed to hit 50. I play casually, taking my time and enjoying the leveling process.
This idea that you and others have, that Bioware is rewarding power levelers is completely ridiculous.
Especially since it's obvious why level 50s get this, the removal of ranked warzones directly effected the longevity of endgame players, and they handled it poorly. This is a "sorry" from Bioware.
