ARMS was odd because some characters were not that different. The majority were, of course. Spring Man and Ribbon Girl were pretty much the same bar their special abilities and a few mannerisms. They were meant to be really damn similar, though.
That said, despite this, those with the same bodyframe were pretty different anyway. So it wouldn't have worked much beyond 3 characters at most(Springtron as an alt). I do wish some of Min Min's alts were semi-references to the other characters, instead of just recoloring.
That also said, Min Min is a character who had a very unique niche that stood out better than just a swappable ARM(which, unfortunately, were rarely dependent on a single character. This is part of what fueled the argument). I don't remember people assuming the alts would be other characters, though. Just entertaining the thought at best?
That doesn't make them like the Captains, though. They(Captains) actually are carbon copies, but lack the same bodyshape.
I'd still rather just have a new Pikmin Captain at that point, that way we can get the new Pikmin some good love~
