The difference between perfect amal and mixed evo really isn't that big, couple 10s at most. When amalgamating and evolving, only a small percentage of the difference would be factored in, and given that you will be doing both to get to the GUR stage, you'll get diminishing losses per stage, to the point where the final card has a SC very close to the perfect amal. The inverse is why most people don't do 16 card evos, because the gains diminish per stage, to the point that a 16 card evo's SC is not much more than a 6 card evo
