I guess so. Even the change of Zero outfits felt rushed. I know Taniguchi likes making Lelouch badass as he was inspired by Kamen Rider but he made it at the cost of Suzaku and Kallen's sake (oh yeah, there are dozens of characters involved too). C.C was the one with the more integral role in the story so she being the one to revive Lelouch didn't affect her
He could have simply call himself Julius Kingsley and wear another outfit like in the OVAs and I wouldn't find it so forced.
