Can we all agree mega evolution was a mistake or, at lest, poorly planned?

Would we still have cross-gen evolution still if it wasn't for the introduction of Eviolite? Game Freak seems reluctant to create cross-gen anymore because Eviolite could take the attention away from their new Pokemon to it's older pre-evolution?
>"Could you imagine Eviolite Mawile?!"
At lest there's Knock Off or Theft. You don't have that choice with Mega Evolution.
We'll never have a Banette evolution counterpart for Dusknoir. Kangaskhan will never be seen without a child because it's required for it's mega evolution.
From the wise words of Fujitsu himself -
"Mega evolution was a mistake."
