I think you are right in assuming that things went wrong when 
evaluative metering was linked to mulptiple focusing points - the 
ideal distribution of measuring fields was sacrificed for the sake of 
their corresponding to focusing points. I think it is only now when 
number of focusing points and metering zones has been so much 
multiplied that Canon's evaluative metering starts to score the goal 
again.
