Not true. Even on a speed run, I check every system for interesting items. I have open/close system map bound to my main trigger. I can check for scannable items in just a few seconds while scooping or escaping gravity well.
Its not thorough, but the idea is to minimise travel time between e.g. o-types, nebulae or my route destination while maximising revenue. Efficiency is my goal for speed runs, but I would never miss a neutron star or ELW.
For thoroughness, different story.

Serious kudos to you!I go in zero throttle, detail scan the star, scoop and honk then proceed to detail scan everything except asteroid belts. I don't use the advanced discovery scanner so it can be a long, drawn out satisfying process finding everything via parallax. I figured that I'd waited 30 years to play an explorer like I imagined back then and I'm going to enjoy every minute.
