You're missing out on a lot. The expansion's story is incredible and a vast improvement over ARR. Whilst you can certainly watch them later there's a lot of lore you'll potentially miss out on and major events won't serve to have the same impact as they would when experiencing them as originally intended.
Plus, as a role-player, I'd assume you'd be all the more eager to soak up everything and understand what is going on and what has changed throughout Eorzea.
I admit I'm a little baffled by your comment - why would you willingly throw enjoyment aside in favour of rushing when there's no real need to do so? It's a fast way to burn out and nurture contempt for the game. Not to mention the content isn't going anywhere anytime soon!
Each to their own I guess...
