I've heard that Shinies are almost ridiculously easy to find in these games. I recall hearing that in certain conditions there's a 20% chance to encounter a Shiny through an Ultra Wormhole. I'm not sure how well I remember that info, so don't take my word on it if it turns out I was wrong. But...
My guess is that they did that so you could move on to the Pokémon League right after beating Lusamine. However, I do agree that this new order of events is better.
While I don't plan to use a Crabrawler myself, I'll just point out that another improvement similar to the Blush Mountain now being an evolutionary location, the foot of Mt. Lanakila can now be accessed far earlier than before, allowing Crabominable to be obtained before the endgame.
Hau getting more acknowledgement is a definite plus. They basically flat-out acknowledge that you and him are basically the two strongest Trainers in Alola.
