Is Wii U's YTD numbers the worst ever for a main console?

Yup, it is the worst performing mainstream console to date.

It will also only get worse (look at what every major economist has said) due to increased competition, greater expectation from the gamers, and loss of momentum (though could say it didn't really have any...).

You're probably too young to remember the Sega Saturn. That was brutal. 

No, I remember it. 
However if you take into account how much the gaming market has grown, I would say the WiiU is far, far worse.
