In theory, yes, but maybe not all cantrips are created equal.
For some reason, in my playthrough I ignored Wyll for the most part, so I didn’t really play as a Warlock, and didn’t experience Eldritch Blast. I only took him with me for the resolution of his quest at the very end, and was very pleasantly surprised how potent it can become (when you buff it during level ups).
Compared to that, stuff like Sacred Flame and Fire Bolt can feel a bit lacking and boring, although they can work for mopping up the goons everywhere and saving spell slots for the bigger fights.
Do you not feel like cantrips in 5e (Baldur’s Gate 3) are the perfect solution to this problem? They feel like it to me.
