Except you can. I've done it with a friend. We made alts and leveled them together thru post 5.0. The only parts of the MSQ we could not do together were the solo duties and the solo duties are a fairly small part of the MSQ. Otherwise every quest, dungeon and trial we did together.

The only reason we stopped is my friend ran into RL time conflicts so he no longer had time for the alt, only his main. The time conflicts, more often than not, are going to be what keeps friends from doing the MSQ together. Maybe one can be online 4-7 but the other can only be online 6-9. That single hour of overlap doesn't allow much progress together, and the slow rate can end up frustrating.

Having the option to do something solo does not make it forced solo content.
