Nuh-uh. Only those at the Battle of Carteneau (specifically, with or near the adventurers) were time-skipped. Those who weren't there weren't. There's actually a difference between the two cutscenes; in the non-legacy intro cutscene, your character wakes up on a cart that you've been riding on and a merchant comments that you're experiencing Aether sickness. You didn't just pop into that cart; you've presumably been riding in it with the merchant and some twins for a while.
In the legacy intro cutscene, you literally pop into existence and walk into your starting city.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding has been that as RPers, we have a little bit of flexibility in which camp our character is in. For example, I'm looking at playing Khaze'to's older sister, who would have been a warrior of light who got timeskipped. I'll create her normally and she will appear in the cart as if she were a normal hero, but I'll just adjust her story in my head. And on the flip side, there are legacy players that have decided that their characters have actually been around all this time. So, form a roleplay perspect, the community is letting each person chose the path for their character, right?
