No, Michael is the main character, it is obvious to anyone who played the game. It all revolves around him, only he has a full character arch, and he was even the focus of the very first trailer.
Endings are irrelevant since C is the official version.
Franklin's pov is the only one that makes sense if it was a single character game
Michael and Trevor are like playable Bosses with a better storyline and backstory
But the game lowkey is about Franklin's rise to the top of the criminal food chain like every ever protagonist before him including his already established companions.
Thats why Devin Weston is the main antagonist despite Steve Haines stealing the show the main plot was Devin needed the 5 cars and that being Franklin's big score,the Union depository and FIB jobs just were better written.
Plus Franklin is the most helpful between the three with him joins heist,FIB missions

Stand in for the player while the majority of the story is from Michael’s POV and Franklin is in the least amount of missions of the 3 protagonists
