Anyway, I think that the mixing of the lines from believing Seth and unbelieving Cain is the best interpretation based on the context, but yours is possible

That is not an interpretation but a misinterpretation and a dodge.

Nowhere in the Bible will you find that succeeding generations of any righteous man were all righteous. Even Noah's son Ham was unrighteous: And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. (Gen 9:22). Therefore Canaan was cursed by Noah: And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. (Gen 9:25)

Furthermore, as pointed out by CV5, you must properly interpret what is in 2 Peter and in Jude about the angels who kept not their first estate. Angels are always called "sons of God" in the OT, but the saints are never called that in the OT.

Abraham believed God and this was counted as being righteous.
