I think it would make more sense if evolving a Pokémon whose pre-evolution was shiny, would could as 1 shiny caught for the evolved form, since evolving usually counts as catching and so that you do not have shiny Pokémon with 0 shiny caught/hatched statistics.

I would argue it's a bug, not a suggestion; since it has captures from evolution despite never being encountered

#

so it's not consistent

It actually is consistent.
You functionnally caught a new Pokémon, but RNG did not turn it into a shiny. It only then becomes shiny because the status from the removed base was transferred.
I believe increasing the shiny statistics there would make completing shiny quests a bit easier. Not sure if it should be accounted for in the balance, though.

but the "captured" statistic does increase, that's what I meant by inconsistent

I realize why it works like that code-wise, but at least in my opinion it makes sense to count it as "captured shiny" as well
