Currently, yes.
But along with VSR and UDB and Triggered Fay comes hate and fear changes, which make epics more available.
Since lately and with respect to epics, the staff have been taking a "spirit" of classic approach to the game, removing epic MQs would be consistent with their recent decision making.
I'm sure everyone has a story about MQing an epic for someone back in the day, but it certainly wasn't common in Velious.

i wouldn't be surprised if it was removed on the next iteration of p99 (re99, etc.). the problem with removing all MQing entirely is that there are legitimate reasons to MQ.
while you are right that selling whole MQ Epics was VERY rare on live in velious, it was VERY common to MQ single bits for a friend or a guildmate that needed a piece. Lots of items go into a guild bank for the specific purpose of being MQ'd to a member that wasn't there to loot it himself.
the real problem remains that we are so far off timeline that there are just too many MQable bits compared to players that need them. the tipping came when it became easier to farm the plat to buy the MQ then to do the quest yourself. Anything they do right now is really just trying to fix a system that has been off kilter for a few years. i think they are looking for solutions that will work the next time around.
