The vengers didn't ignore the villans past. In Billy's interview Billy mentioned that he was hurt that Ben insulted them, and they were just trying to turn their lives around.

While kevin's dad was refered to by his step dad and his mom, we don't know if they were refering Devin. The only people who ever refered to Devin were kevin and max, and those were false memories. And how do you know that Servantis didn't just alter his mom and step dad's memories too?

Finally, the original series never said that Clancy, Zombozo or really andone else were hybrids. In fact, Derrick said that they were originally mutants. AF retconed Kevin and Gwen to be hybrids, and it introduced some new hybrids, the plumbers helpers. So every human with powers besides Gwen, Ben, the plumbers helpers, and the rooters are mutants. Like they have always been.
