Yeah that's probably a fair point. On live, for quite awhile people had way less knowledge about things like how to most efficiently exp, the best places to go, etc. so leveling took longer than it does here. Plus the expansions were moving somewhat quickly so it wasn't like you got to the end of Velious with a main and then had all the time in the world to just level countless alts, you'd always need to keep some level of focus on your main.
On P99, I have multiple chars who I would define as a "main" in the sense that I play them regularly. On live in the classic era I had a couple alts and one serious "main".
