Genning is all about saving time. You could spend days, weeks, months soft resetting to get the 'perfect' legendary pokemon or a few minutes to gen one in. Same with breeding. If i had infinite amounts of time, I'd be soft resetting till it happens (it took me 6hrs soft resetting to get a decent Diancie when it was released). Realistically, life doesn't work that way. So you can spend months getting the perfect pokemon or minutes to get the exact same thing.
Ethically, it is only wrong if the stats, abilities or movesets deviate from the original pokemon. If you do it just to make a pokemon shiny, that's just an aesthetic alteration.
Like it's been said before, it's all about how you battle. A full team of genned in legendaries can die to a single caterpie when done correctly. It's all about battling abilities. That's my two cents at least
