In this case the speaker was trying to tell the listener why they want do this
as fast as they can, they tried to liken it using the example and the listener
didn't quite get it. They then followed it up with まあいいじゃん, before starting
another sentence explaining other reasons why they wanted to do it. Is this
まあいいじゃん, just like a way of saying "never mind", or "don't worry about it"?

question
meaning spoken-language
まあいいじゃん meaning
I'm by no means anything more than a beginner, but I've both used (and had the
skit script I wrote it in scrutinized for grammar and spelling) and heard
「まあいいじゃん」 used to say "it doesn't matter", "whatever then, it's okay if you're
not clear on it", which are just slightly different words for "never mind",
"don't worry about it", so yes, it is.

answer
Yes. I like to think of まあいいじゃん as a short form of まあいいじゃない, meaning somewhere
along the lines of "well that's fine anyways" or "that's okay".
