It's working as intended. Levequests were a V1.0 and extremely abused through a technique that the botters took advantage of. But the allowance predated even that as it was in the V1.0 Beta too.

Essentially you were not supposed to use levequests-only. The original V1.0 of the game also has a character level and penalties for not resting. Mainly the point of levequests now are just to get crafting materials. If you pay attention to V1.0 opening you'll note the original intent was more like what the "marks" are now. But I suppose someone noted that they could not have 1000 players chasing the same mobs, so this levequest "monster field pseudo-instance" ensured that people could actually do the quests instead of just spamming field monsters for experience.
