Could be. The whole point of the VF-25 was to help cut cost while providing the ability to specialize for certain roles if needed. The VF19/22 were both extremely expensive and only rolled out for spec ops units. Even the VF 22 had to trim cost by dropping the mind control interface. Gamlin, Max and Millia use this model at some point in the M7 series.
I'm really hoping the new Macross will bring the whole "natural" vs "cyborgs/augments" social debate to the front. There was HUGE potential about how divergent the colony fleets were becoming from Earth.
