Is the XBO version of FFXV a mistake?

Hmmm, I'm not as sure of that as you are. If Square Enix is smart and releases the KH Collection on XB1 before KH3 releases (they are considering it), I could possibly see KH3 topping it. Xbox One is a holiday heavy seller, so I'm sure that alot of Xbox One's sold during the Holiday season are parents buying for their kids. Parents see Disney characters on a game case when they're picking up that XB1 for their kids, there's a good chance they'll grab it imo.

Maybe so, but Final Fantasy is a stronger brand than KH. Maybe for a lot of people FFXV will be the first JRPG that they play.

You are forgetting that Kingdom Hearts is a stronger brand than Final Fantasy in NA. That is the strongest region for Xbox.
