It might be intended ...
I mean sure we are skiping it since we usualy heard the same conversation like thousand times allready (sometimes in few past seconds since we are reloading like mad just to eplore all options ... i dont do that personaly, but i heared people do) ...
But when you think about it outside this context, the only person who will skip dialogue will be someone who dont care about the dialogue ... that person would probably not even care how will that dialogue end, and therefore would not care wich choice will be, well ... chosen.
So ... yeah, its bad design and i believe we all expressed ourselef about it quite well in past year.

But theoreticaly it might not be a misstake, just bad design choice. :-/
It would be better to either remove it, or make it to toggle tho.
