Yes, and there are other good reasons for that. One is that different MTAs set different macros at different times. For example, with sendmail the value of the "i" macro is set with the MAIL FROM, but with postfix it's set later in the SMTP sequence, so an application can't assume it's available at MAIL FROM if the intent is to have it work with any milter-aware MTA.
