Were V:tM rules intentionally badly designed?

Rumours tell that Vampire: the masquarade was designed with purpose to be a trainwreck when it comes to the mechanics, so that people would not use them.

Was this really the case and what evidence is there for or against it, aside from the nature of the rules themselves and similar sentiments in the traditional rpg culture of the time?
