I was one of those newbies so hopefully I didn't disgruntle anyway too greatly. I've never used Party Finder so I'm not really sure how it works. I imagine you highlight certain classes you want to take in or something like that. THere's probably a form of pre-planning involved that you don't get with Duty Finder.

I've generally shied away from the optional dungeons. This is my first traditional MMO that I've played with some regularity and I never have much of an idea of what I'm doing and I hate to be a burden on others. I guess I'll wait on the Extreme stuff until I've upped my item level significantly.

PF is a little intimidating at first but it's really just used to put more specific parameters on things and to advertise getting groups together for specific content. Like unsynced as we said, or for learning parties for newbies vs clear/farm parties that don't want people who have not completed the fight. People don't tend to get too needy about specific jobs beyond making sure there are no duplicates and getting at least one of each melee/ranged/caster DPS (since those things affect party buffs and Limit Break meter). So it's pre-planning like you said but not too intense, it's meant to facilitate grouping with randoms but for things you want a bit more control over than duty finder gives you.
