Would they entertain that? It wouldn't affect my application yeah? I haven't yet raised a webform as I thought they would either not reply or just tell me that my application is within processing time and that I'd just have to wait.

urgent matters - it is best to let them know - if classes are starting and if school does not allow registration before approval.
you have to assess your situation before requesting attention.

Hi everyone,
I've for the May 2021 intake, submitted my online application on 15 Dec 2020 and gave my biometrics in Abu Dhabi on 30 Dec 2020. Now I'm waiting for my next step/visa decision.

Has anyone else from UAE applied for the study permit recently and can share their expeirence and average processing time in current scenario?

Seems pretty vague and non-conclusive. It could mean anything. However, I want to lean more towards positive side considering instructions are usually meant for further actions (like PP submission, etc).
