I don't think it's for anyone to decide whether Quinx were a mistake or not, but they certainly didn't make :re better in any way. UkakuKaguneBestKagune made excellent points. They're not bad characters but could be much better. And that's dissapointing: they pale in comparision to other charas who get much less panel time. And it says something. In my opinion, they're one of the weakest parts in :re. Like BestKagune grew to like Hakatori better, I myself like Juuzou squad members way better and find them way more interesting despite knowing so little about them (I personally would prefer his squad in place of Quinx and Kaneki forming relationships with them instead of babysitting a group of people who are only what, 2-3 years younger than him).

Qs don't feel like TG characters for me. It's really weird and hard to explain, but they're just out of place most of the time. Maybe it's because they were meant to appeal to broader audience. Of course, this is only a personal impression I've got.

About :re being boring, I don't think it is. I'd rather say that it's tiring. With Kaneki missing his memories, something is missing in the story as well. And it might not be necessary connected with him having amnesia. I will be Forever Bitter that Ishida went with this route. I will be bitter, because we could have Kaneki with his memories in tact from the start and don't tell me he wouldn't have grow as a person, or that amnesia is the only way for him to have a fresh start, because that's bullshit.
