Ok...
In Xenoblade Chronicles you have a weak attack that fills your arts, which are your most powerful powers and your source of inflicting status, "elemental" attacks and healing. Once you have used your arts, you have to keep doing more weak attacks in order to refill them.
In Final Fantasy VII Remake you have a weak attack that fills your ATB Bar, which allows you to use your most powerful attacks as well as your magic and the use of healing items. Once you have depleted your ATB Bar, you have to keep doing weak attacks in order to refill it.
Again, I know there are differences, thus why I called it an evolution that allows you for more freedom of action. FF VII Remake lets you roll and block enemy attacks (which also slightly refills your ATB Bar), let's you perform the actual weak attacks by yourself (or you can set them to be automatic like XC), let's you change party members on the fly, you can slow down time while selecting your powers, etc, etc, etc... but my point still stands: they are similar in quite a number of things.

I would say evolution is the wrong word. They have the same base idea (limit how much the player can use powerful moves, which is kind of the basic premise of most RPG games), but go about doing so in a rather different way.

I think you are right. Let's say they part from the same idea, but they execute it in different ways.
But in the end I just wanted to point that FF VII Remake battle system has many similarities with Xenoblade Chronicles. Which... Well, it does.
