No real need. As technology progressed, satellites have gotten smaller and required smaller rockets.
Falcon Heavy and BFR will be taking up the next generation of space stations and interplanetary travel vehicles.

Absolutely irrelevant, as the only "satellite" launched via a saturn v was a "space station" called skylab.

Exactly. With rockets you want just enough rocket to get you where you’re going. The Saturn V was designed for lunar injection. (Giggity). There’s been no need to send that much payload out of LEO.
