No i disagree, you're like hungup too specifically on weird everquest minutia.

If you wanted to make "your own" mmo, like everquest, like the OP asked.

You could like download a tutorial on youtube from 12 years ago, that if you follow step by step make your own clone of eq in like 100 hours.

Most of the stuff is hard to do, but with AI anyone could follow the tutorial, because you can ask questions, it can tell you how to do stuff you don't understand bla bla bla, its awesome.

If there are so many amazing youtube tutorials from 12 years ago that can hold your hand enough to make a MMO on the scale and quality of Everquest in 100 hours, where are all of the indie MMO's over the past decade?

To me it just sounds like you are vastly underestimating the complexity of video games, while vastly overestimating an AI's ability to teach someone.
