I'm not sure what you mean by Hades adding inconsistency.
The Adoulin storyline makes it clear that Hades is NOT a natural part of Vana'diel in any way. He's an extradimensional invader. Or, to be more specific, he's a mortal from Vana'diel who found his way to that other dimension (Tartarus) and used the power he found there to transform himself into a nihilistic god-like being. In either case, though, he has no relation to the various gods and god-like beings found in Vana'diel, and doesn't interfere with the lore of those beings in any way I can think of.
