Do some TLM priests (sede, SSPX, FSSP, etc.) skip entire prayers in order to shorten Mass? I've been told that this was a common thing before the NO; some priests would make themselves popular by shaving off 15 minutes or so from Sunday Mass with the assumption that most of the faithful wouldn't notice because they wouldn't know Latin.

That is an argument put forth by liberals often used to justify the use of the vernacular. They say that there were abuses before the Novus Ordo because the Faithful wouldn't know Latin, which is a bunch of crap. That's not to say thatt there have never been abuses, but its nothing like we perpetuated in the Novus Ordo. The faithful in tradition would spot an error in the Latin Mass today immediately. We may be more aware of the fact that abuses happen, but that doesn't mean someone in years prior wouldn't notice. Perhaps it only sounds ridiculous to those who attend the TLM

I was an altar boy at that time, and it did not happen in my parish, or
any other parish that I attended during that questioned time period.
I never heard of any complaints of this issue.
