Fair enough but I don't think the argument is very good if you're throwing Kazamas into "the family" because you're further diluting the pool of main character candidates

Though for what it's worth as a casual Tekken observer Jin seemed like a better choice than Kazuya for Devil geners. He had the Devil side character first and had that side mode in Tekken 4 or 5 IIRC where Kazuya didn't, right? Also always associated him as closer to the "main Tekken guy"

Nah, Kazuya had it first, and was literally the "Devil" character, and the story is he passed the gene on to Jin. The story with Jin had been that he was trying to suppress it, while Kazuya did not. Kazuya's is definitely the more iconic look of the two, though, as he's the old purple Devil people remember.

Kazuya's also very much the main character of 7, all things considered. Jin takes a pretty big back seat to Kazuya and Heihachi, there.

I think they did try to make Jin the main character, kinda like the push to make the Kilik/Xianghua/Maxi trio the main characters of the Soul series, but neither took quite as well as they liked, and ultimately the story kinda circled back to the original mains, anyway (Kazuya and Siegfried, respectively) so they just went ahead and changed the marketing push back to them for the latest entries.
