I believe that reaching the finish line faster is only good for bragging rights and statistics when it comes to reading for enjoyment. It comes up every now and then here on MR. It reminds me, hey, right, I would like to read faster as well. After a while I also remember after a short research or refresher why speedreading is not an option to read faster for me personaly. Skimming always removes details no matter how subtle, calling it anything else does not change the outcome.

IMHO, if there is need to skip or speed through boring passages in a book then the quality of the book wasn't that great to begin with.
