No. They had trade-offs to make, and sentinel-based sequences are a needed thing, even outside of strings.
The mistake was that ISAs never looked at what HLL needed, then add the necessary instructions (I posted more about this below).
Even NULL is not a big mistake, when looked at in context of the time in which it was developed.
